Actually, a person's importance is up to the power it wields over the people around him. If there was only 1 person left, he cannot be important. He can view himself as important, but ultimately, it is what he can do to others than make him important(powerful).
What use would Bill Gates's billion dollars do if he is the only guy in the world remaining? WHo'd run the machines?
What good is the Pope's status, if there is no one for him to exert that status on?
No one is important. We are important because of collective forces, and interactions.
How ya doing, buddy?
