Can any of you please explain how man "cooperates" with God in the "new birth" process?

Man cooperates either through his own faith (as a rational adult) or through the faith of others (from infancy through the age of rationale). Jesus worked miracles under the same auspices - the faith of the one to receive the miracle, or the faith of those surrounding.

Well, I'll congratulate you because you're the first Catholic who hasn't tried to skirt this issue. Where precisely did you get your faith from?
