Considering the size of our planet inside the infinite cosmos, what do you think should be the limits of inflation for the human ego?
I actually wanted to put this question in the religion and spirituality section, but the new format does not allow it
and it has happened for the second time.
Anyhow, i am satisfied with the spiritual depth of both of the answers received so far.
Thanks Quadrillian and Nyx, i think you are natural spiritualists also.

Considering the size of our planet compared to the size of the subatomic world, there is room to be amazed at the immensity of the structures that lead to living organisms on Earth.
But since you asked specifically about sizes, then considering that humans are only about one order of magnitude larger than other small vertebrates, yet we share with all vertebrates the fact that we are about twenty orders of magnitude larger than the subatomic world, and the molecular complexity of all living things is about the same, regardless of size, there is no reason why the primates known as Homo sapien should think of themselves as somehow all superior over every other creature.
Cheers!
