Please tell me why or why not!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:

Yes and no!. It depends on the point of reference!.

If I use myself as the center of the observation, I am the most important creature in the universe!. Without my self awareness, the universe does not even have any meaning at all!. Its existence is irrelevant!. So, yes, I am the most important creature in the universe in my realms!.

But, when the center of the observation is the whole universe, then I am not an important creature in the universe at all!. Just like everyone and everything else in the universe, no individuals nor species could claim to be the most important!. The universe is too vast and too out of control for any being to claim to be most important!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

I don't think I'm the most important creature in the universe!. I think, in the worst case scenario, I would probably sacrifice my own life for my family, or friends, or my country (admittedly, nationalism is a bit of an odd concept, but that's another discussion)!.

However, I think it's important for people to think of themselves as important, maybe even more important than the average person!. The belief may be inaccurate, but it gives people incentive to work toward their goals and fulfill their societal duties!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Nope, and anyone who thinks that is the stupidest creature in the Universe!.
Every living creature is important even the strange ones!. They don't know why they are here either , but I don't know of any animals or creatures trying to "Off Themselves"
Every living thing needs something else to live!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

No, all the other animals and plants that keep me here on this earth, provide me with food and all that, are the most important creatures in universe!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

No!.
Every creature should be treated the same because every creature was granted life on this earth which means that every creature has a meaning of life!.
Even if the meaning is just to live!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

I am truly insignificant to the universe, but that doesn't stop me from living my life, rockin hard, makin art and lovin my family!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Well, since I am not a solipsist, I see no reason to believe this!. It could be true, but, like I said, I can't see any reason to believe it is!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

If I am not the center of my universe then i am the servant of another's !.Www@QuestionHome@Com

I am not important!. I just happen to be here!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Of course not! We need every creatures' help to survive!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

In my own mind yes, but I know that when I interact with the world, they don't think so!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
