If the doctor's building to which I now depart has wi-fi, I may "rejoin, revise, and extend" this dialogue. Otherwise, I'll check back this evening -- in hopes of seeing wisdom and additional testimony displayed here in response to your query...

So, I see.. "being born again" is NOT being born again it's a metaphor for some type of miracle.. or change in carnality.. confirmed by abilty to read the bible.. and follow it rote.. conflated by baptism or death of the old man?..

I might have you wrong but I don't believe it's that complicated..

I thought you wanted the Christian experience of being "born again" and our subsequent "re-growth" to be compared to "evolution".

Now, I have no idea what you wanted...

Well ...WYSIWYG...

Hmmm, I don't recall mentioning Bible reading or "rote" following of Scripture or baptism.

It would seem that it is YOU who are adding in non-critical-path "works" as requirements into what IS a simple process...
