I would like to know why you think it is possible to see God face to face
without proper knowledge.
Let's think about this: We have scriptures available to us to teach us
about God. If it really does not matter what is correct or incorrect
knowledge, then there would be no need for the scriptures to begin with,
since we could each judge for ourselves what we wish to accept. If, on the
other hand, we acknowledge that the scriptures are from God, then it
behooves us to understand them properly.
Frankly, I find discussions and debates between members of different
traditions to be immensely informative, and much more interesting than all
sorts of sentimental claims that it doesn't matter, everyone is right, etc.
Of course, these discussions presuppose that the participants are mature
enough to stick to philosophy, and refrain from unprovoked personal
attacks. Sadly, this is often not the case here.
