I'll take a look at your article.

It would indeed help if there were an established pantheistic religion that meets my criteria of existentialism, cosmicism, naturalism, pragmatism, etc. Obviously, there's no such thing, so I'm speaking mainly for myself. It would help if more folks saw the light as I see it, but I can hardly be blamed for the fact that inferior ideas flourish (such as old-fashioned theism).

There are some pantheistic traditions, and naturalism itself is implicitly or virtually pantheistic, I think. I'm just adding my spin to it.

Are you saying the method of trial and error is humane, even when the method is applied to living things, so that nature is effectively playing with trillions of lives? Not so sure about that. Of course, nature would have no other way to create other than by going through stages. That makes the creative process tragic or pitiful rather than humane.
