I took your comment to instill a sort of "pecking order" among back-end languages. In this case, it sounded an awful lot like "it goes from _insert language(s) you approve of_ to PHP to JavaScript". Basically that you'd lump PHP and JavaScript into the "terrible" bin. I'm simply pointing out while you may have disdain for those languages (and perhaps even rightfully so) the users are free to love them and still hate other languages. If I misrepresented your stance, I apologize.
