Hello Ra3MaN,
​
1) What significance does Cosmic/Chemical/Biological origins (And there connection) have, in our endeavors for modern Science?
​
Significance is assigned as theories are developed.
​
Could the current origin theories, in this argument, biological, be biased inferences fundamentally based on Darwinist ideas?
​
Absolutley. If all you have is a hammer then every problem begins to look like a nail.
But I do not believe science works this way. Confirmational bias is something science attempts to avoid.

Who can know what is outside of matter, time and space?
​
So are you suggesting that since no one can know we can correctly infer it must be supernatural?
​
Sounds like Russell's teapot to me.
