Part 353. Knowledge or mysticism or both or neither?

Erich Fromm in his book Escape from Freedom argues that it is impossible by intellect to know and understand God. We experience mystical union with God and knowledge of God is superfluous. 

 It is my opinion that God is beyond description, metaphor or symbols,  beyond human intellectual capacity, but we have to ask: is there anything to know or to experience?

Does deconstruction lead to a completely negative outlook or is it the precursor to some form of fsith/religious reconstruction?  My decision to follow the way of Jesus, to love neighbour and campaign for social justice, is driven by what? I do not believe it is a mystical union, nor the work of a metaphysical entity. It is a subjective decision based on inclination and experience as are many other things in life.
