You know, I do not understand the logic behind that term "Born Again" in the religious sense. I know they mean it as "washed free of previous sins, freshly embarking on a religious life", but this collides directly with the other doctrine that all humans are inherently born sinful, and just creates cognitive dissonance for me.
