The Clouding of Unknowing is not about a boundary beyond which we cannot see, but about how to approach knowledge beyond other forms of mental conceptualization.

You find the same practice among all the major experiential religions.

As for Science and Spirituality: Science is by definition without value, without qualitative measurement. This limits it's abillity to be used beyond the subset of those things capable of being detected by the senses (and their extensions), beyond that which has specific location in time and space and that which can be numbered and quantified.

So, it can be helpful in increasing knowledge but, as with logic/reason, it is insufficient a tool for approaching the realm of religion - the absolute in terms of values, truth, purpose, etc.

As another put it: science can only describe what is, not what ought.

The Clouding of Unknowing is not about a boundary beyond which we cannot see, but about how to approach knowledge beyond other forms of mental conceptualization.

A perfect example of a gobbledygook sentence which ends up either saying the same thing it pretends to contradict, or saying nothing at all.

The unknown 14th century author of the Cloud of Unknowing is smiling somewhere, I'm sure.
