Why do people interpret the same scripture differently?

[seokjin]

I've noticed that even within the same faith, people have such diverse interpretations of sacred texts. Is it about personal experiences, cultural backgrounds, or something else? Would love to hear your thoughts and examples!

Such a thought-provoking observation! I think the diversity in interpretations comes from a mix of personal experiences, cultural influences, and even the way sacred texts are taught or emphasized within different communities. For example, in some cultures, certain passages are highlighted more than others, shaping unique perspectives.
