4. Do you mean in a scientific sense or a religious sense?
I don't really understand what "Where are humans in relation to the rest of the cosmos" could mean in a scientific sense, but that may well be a problem on my part rather than a lack of clarity.

Yes, I realize that just about all of my first responses to your posts are requests for clarification. Once a pedant, always a pedant.
