Please check the definition. I don't think "ideology" specifically is part of the meaning of 独尊, is it?

Maybe "sole dominant (ideology etc)" would be ok, but isn't that covered by "supremacy (of a religion,
ideology, cultural norm, social group etc)"?

Also, if something is "dominant" then I guess it is automatically "sole dominant" (?)
i.e. Isn't "sole dominant" a redundant expression, perhaps resulting from a desire to include a translation of 独
in the English definition?

"to revere ..."
罢黜百家,独尊儒术
proscribe all non-Confucian schools of thought and espouse Confucianism as the orthodox state ideology

"supremacy"
但世间的宗教动荡并没有让袄教在波斯帝国享有不可争议的独尊地位。
But the religious fermentation of the world did not leave the supremacy of Zoroastrianism
undisputed in the Persian Empire.

Editor:
我们的社会还是英文独尊的社会
孔子就是五岳独尊的泰山吗
教会从他那里得到了独尊而不许人过问的倾向

"supremacy" is 独尊地位, position of being dominant
