It's a tricky concept because we *are* unique individuals created by God, but the misconception, I think, is that this makes us *superior* to a group of individuals. That's obviously ridiculous.

What being an individual means is that we have different abilities and we need to accept that God has unique plans for us based on that. Those plans will almost certainly involve cooperating with others following their own plans.

It also means that it is *not* okay for the group to sacrifice people for "the greater good" (like Aztecs). Self-sacrifice is a supreme moral act that the individual has to perform of their own volition.
