you do realize the verse you referenced is talking about actual physical birth as when the water breaks and a person is born

Is that the Gospel of John or a handbook of obstetrics and gynecology you're talking about? John's Gospel says that it was written that you and I might have "life in [Jesus'] name," not to teach us basic medical science.

Yah um no. Nobody ever thought that until recently, and it makes zero grammatical sense since it’s “born again of water and the spirit” - water and the spirit is a singular thing (i.e. baptism). Not “born of water then of the spirit” or something.

after Jesus said ye must be born again- he was asked can a man go back into his mothers womb, Jesus was telling him no your born of water the first time, born spiritually the second time, someone was making it sound like the water birth was baptism which of course it is not!
