Having the same ideas as those three philosophers is not necessarily a good thing.

Hopefully the great return to Tradition will happen before then, and AI will be banned and considered heretical. Like in the Dune universe.

Getting BACK ON TOPIC

OP, there appears to be nothing heretical about the Cloud of Unknowing. It hasn't been condemned and seems to be rightly recognized as part of the Catholic mystical tradition. So I'd say give it a shot, see what happens. Generally speaking, if you speak to God genuinely, and do it long enough, sooner or later he'll speak back to you, one way or another. So read it and follow it, and see what happens.

You claim to support one of the Apostolic Churches but you don't seem to have any confidence in God giving it strength and preserving it from error. Do you believe in God? Do you believe he guides the Church? Do you believe the Holy Spirit is with the Church?

The Desert Fathers are really great, if they're who I think they are in these collections. Basil the Great, Gregory of Nyssa, and Gregory of Nazianzus are all deep, sympathetic thinkers. I might also recommend Gregory of Nyssa's "The Life of Moses" for some insight into the way the early Church approached Scripture.
