And I'm not OK with ONLY Turing occupying this position.
Von Neumann, Curry, Kholmogorov, McCartey, Armstrong, Norvig, many others (yes, I'm mixing alive and dead) - are they really not standing near Turing?

If you want to evangelize computer science to the masses, then by all means. I applaud that. But I'm not going to do it, and I can't ask someone else to. Turing is not bad enough to be disqualified, so if there's only one and the chips have fallen such that it's him, I'm okay with that.
BTW, who is McCartey? Did you mean John McCarthy?
