taking out a bunch of avengers and x-men has no bearing on this discussion...this is Galactus, not a mixed bag of heroes which includes street-levelers (cap, wolverine, etc.).

This one is extremely debatable at best, as convincing arguments can be made either way without ever being concrete.
I will say, though, that Thanos is by far the best wielder of powerful artifacts that the MU has seen. That much is given.

Well that itself is also debatable. I wouldn't say he's the best wielder "by far." I would say he's the most frequent wielder by far of powerful objects. Magus and Adam Warlock both possessed the gauntlet briefly...and it was actually Adam Warlock who displayed anything remotely close to a complete understanding of the power he wielded and it's implied responsibilities (made apparent during the cosmic "town-hall" between the LT, Warlock, and the cosmic entities).
All Thanos has done is use the IG and CC for destructive purposes, and he has been the only one to ever use the HOTI. I wouldn't say that's enough evidence to title him "the best wielder," only that he comes upon them more often than the rest of marvel's characters.

Yet Thor using just the power gem was frozen into a block of force, and stalemated by Thanos...
Galactus could easily pull this off.
Power Gem alone doesn't equal physically unbeatable =/

When has Galactus employed something like so?
Yes, if you are tapping into it it does.
