Here is my question: In the big picture, are some people better then other people and can people really help who they are or have become and is it a big ego to actually think you are better then/superior to others?

If you want to read what led to this question:
I had a situation at work where I was charged w/ sexual harassment. Without going into too much detail I was on face book and sent a half nude picture of myself to a contract employee (another female) -- I have lost some weight and been working out and wanted to show off I guess. I know, stupid, but let's move on. I work in an office with 3 other ladies (1 is a female attorney) and a male attorney. I am single, fairly attractive, no kids and basically living free and easy.

In any event this was used as an excuse to try to squash me. In the rush to put me in my place, even if it was sexual harassment and not some made up bullshit, it was not handled correctly. My boss, the male attorney, is semi-retired and was on vacation at the time (how convenient!). Things are resolved. Not exactly to my liking but that's not my issue now.

I am having a hard time moving past this. I know people can be petty and mean and small but when I am confronted with it it is unbelievable that people are actually that way.

I do not like conflict but I did stick up for myself in an appropriate way.

I want to think I'm better then they are, which would give me great satisfaction, but there is a part of me that says, no, you're not better then they are, that deep down we are all the same and that we should not compare ourselves to others. One should be humble, Blah blah blah.

Thoughts please.
