Question:

If there is no god what makes you think you are so special?

just asking


Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: From my own eyes and from the eyes of my loved ones, I am special (loved or cared about than other human beings). This is true of everyone if we're honest with ourselves.

From the perspective of humanity at large, I am not special. I am one among billions that is very fortunate to be born where and when I was. From a cosmic perspective, I am only special in the sense of being a representative of a very peculiar species on a twig on the tree of evolution on planet Earth. In another sense in the cosmic scheme of things, I am of no importance.
