There is no such thing as 'cosmic mind', cause there is no
one to "think" of any thoughts.
If 'beingness' or consciousness is like electricity, then

Not classical theists.

Nature throws a wide range of mutations into the
environment. Many fail to make it, in the process, but some
always survive.
This gives evolution the versatility and the flexibility to
deal with the capricious and erratic, fluctuations in the
environment.
