"I’ve often wondered why people make that claim when it’s pretty obvious there in black and white."

Clarified in post #5.

Catholics are quite aware that they have to be born again we've known it for 2000 years. ;0)

OK, then I need more clarification.

Are you saying one can just go dunk his head and be baptised?

He was emphasizing "experience" as a stimulating or moving experience which one is not required to perceive after Baptism.

The whole point of the act is to obey God and Jesus. The act of obeying is also (in part) emotional. That is the experience we are talking about, isn't it? To become ever closer to our Savior?
