No one's interpretation is wrong because no one really understands it except the creator?

If it's like art, not even the creator understands it. Most critics are now of the opinion that art and literature are entirely subject to individual interpretation, and that the creator's word is not final. Read Derrida, 'Death of the Author', if you have time.
It would be interesting if God was the same...

God can be like art in THAT respect, I suppose, but He's not EXACTLY like art. Art is created by someone. God wasn't.

God is surely like art. Created by an inventive man.

It's a nice thought, but it's more like art...everyone's an expert and no one agrees.
