See The Enemy.
"All beings together against a cruel cosmos" sounds like pieces of two different philosophes spliced together somehow.
The universe can be regarded as hostile or maternal depending on which of its aspects we emphasize. On the one hand, we evolved and are sustained in this universe, not anywhere else. On the other hand, we can survive in only a very narrow range of environments. But, on the other hand, the rest of the universe, the stars with their life-giving heat and light, are necessary to sustain the life-bearing planetary environments.
My pantheon includes Indra who sends rain, Prometheus who controls fire and Thor who kills giants of ice and frost.
We belong here despite ice and fire.
"All beings together" if they can see it that way.
Merseians can see it that way although they were originally introduced as cliched pulp green alien hostiles.

Kaor, Paul!
Exactly, Old Nick was right. The "universe," as such doesn't care beans whether or not "we" exist.
Ad astra! Sean
