Honestly, if they're telling you that one programming language is inherently better than another in totality, they're doing you and everyone else a disservice. A specific feature of a programming language may be better implemented or better supported than another, but saying it is completely better is just ignoring too many of the other features of the programming language.

Plus, I've met a good number of people with PhD's who really don't know what they're talking about. Or at least don't have as good an understanding as they should.
