Sorry to leave you hanging Tom, but that is in fact the orthodox position.
God is separate from his creation and is therefore nothing like it. Since man primarily experiences reality in his immediate surroundings it is impossible for man to truely know the "ultimate nature" of God in this life.
However, man was created to know God. In this life it is through reflection on his attributes by observing the world and also by contemplating revelation.
