Like my Religion teacher said:

When we read, all that which we read, we interpret, and that's just the way it is. You have an ego (not being egoistic, the 'self'-thing psychologists talk about), and therefore you have subjective opinions. You cannot read and not interpret. You can try, but you will always interpret it. And different people will interpret the same text differently. No matter what. (and the same thing goes for writing)

This may be one of the reasons for why a supposedly all-knowing, ultimate-purpoused book (e.g. the Bible, the Koran) can create so many different factions of people, sometimes even making war on one another over some issue (no disrespect intended).
