I think the cosmic mind thing could simply be a different way of describing the laws that we observe, e.g. gravity, Newton's laws, inverse relationship of pressure and volume, etc.

This kind of ventures towards a pantheistic or panentheistic view of the universe.

Maybe one could posit some interesting beliefs about the nature of consciousness as well, but I don't think there is anything approximating a "cosmic mind" that can be equated to the traditional conception of God.

I agree. The Abrahamic God has been anthropomorphized by a very narcissistic and malicious group of people, and it shows in how their God behaves.

I could see this. The noumenon exists in some real sense even though we can't physically touch it. This would be very similar to the Gnostic conception of God.
