Seems plausible enough to me, why not? I'm not sure if you could make a new religion out of this though.
The structure and function of the human nervous system came about as a result of an infinite number of feed back from an infinite number of evolutionary selections. If it didn't broadly come to "function" from whatever coincidence needed to make it "function", it didn't survive. While it didn't survive, a trillion other permutations came about to each to similarly tested. The web like arrangement of synapses around each neuron is the most superficial of the reason why the nerve system that works actually functions.
There is no evidence whatsoever of evolutionary selection having driven the formation of the galaxy clusters. There is nothing driving the cluster towards "function". Besides the superficial resemblence in its layout, the web of galaxy clusters does not share in the least any of the rest of the more important reasons why a nerve system funcitons.
This is why it is not plausible.
Look a little deeper, than most of what seemly romantically plausible is seen to be bullshit. But you get a startling reward - that that seem plausible after a deeper examination now actually has a real chance of being plausible, and not just a child's doddle.
