if God created the whole universe in order to create us then why did he not make it possible for us to be much smaller? if we were only a few inches tall then we would eat much less. we could fall from any height without hurting ourselves. we could carry many times our own weight and human powered flight would be a possibility.

so why make us so big?
Sounds like the wishful thinking of a cat or a hawk. I think all the ingenuity we've expended building civilizations would have had to have been devoted to self defense against being eaten by the huge number of animals which would be larger than us.
I just stumbled across something in an old book The World of Mathematics. It mentions how the "rate of living" generally speeds up as size decreases. A man has a certain heart rate, a dog's heart rate is much faster, and a rat's is much, much faster still. A man lives about 70 years, a dog about 10-12 years, and a rat lives about 3 years. If we were a few inches tall we'd probably live less than 3 years. So that might have something to do with it.

smaller animals live shorter lives but their 'rate of living' is higher so it seems longer to them.
