One thing that I found really interesting this week was our discussion on the duplicity of words and interpretations.  The idea that each word has more then one meaning coupled with the fact that everyone interprets things in different ways (and that different things make sense to different people) leads to the question of if true knowledge, especially of intangibles, is even possible.  Since intangibles can only be measured by words, how could there be a true understanding/interpretation accepted by everyone (a.k.a. knowledge)? 
     I felt this really extended to religion.  With all the different sects and interpretations of texts a true knowledge of the unknown seems impossible.  In addition, knowledge in the sense of a reader who sees all perspectives, as talked about in Death of the Author, seems unrealistic.  There are just too many different ways people see things for an individual to know them all and then, on top of that, to not favorite one would never happen.  With that in mind I now am wondering if knowledge itself is also just an unachievable intangible.
