Definitely. Before the advent of telescopes and modern astronomy, we naturally assumed that the sun revolved around us because that's as far as we could physically (and cognitively) see. We were being egotistical to assume that the universe was here just for us. In a contemporary context, it would be similarly egotistical to assume that the whole of the universe began with the furthest event we puny humans are able to infer from our vantage point on this little speck of a planet. Context should teach us that we have no reason to assume that our local "big bang" is special or unique in any way. Just because we can't see or infer any further out (and we might never be able to) gives us no right to declare the big bang to be any sort of beginning.
