Interpretation...is it valid critique?

[milo]

For instance, in brief crit of one of chris' poems, i simply said," this is too preachy and opinionated", and suggested a title change to fix the problem I was having with it. That's an example of interpretation; I was simply stating that the poem may be interpreted as a God's-gonna-damn-them-all-to-hell sermon.

Yes and thanks for that gift trueE!

You're welcome, chris (I'm wondering when or if milo will ever accept that I interpreted it as a baptist, which gave me an idea for a title-change, which you found to be a good idea (and a useful one) so therefore it was valid)

the idea is valid, but it is not a comment on interpretation. Yes, you /used/ interpretation, but that is not really the point in this thread.
