103:2.1 [[Religion]] is [[functional]] in the [[human]] [[mind]] and has been [[realized]] in [[experience]] prior to its [[appearance]] in [[human]] [[consciousness]]. A [[child]] has been in [[existence]] about nine months before it [[experiences]] [[birth]]. But the "birth" of [[religion]] is not sudden; it is rather a [[gradual]] [[emergence]]. Nevertheless, sooner or later there is a "birth day." You do not enter the [[kingdom of heaven]] unless you have been "born again"[https://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Gospel_of_john#Chapter_3]—born of the Spirit. Many [[spiritual]] [[births]] are accompanied by much [[anguish]] of spirit and marked [[psychological]] [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Perturbation_(biology) perturbations], as many [[physical]] [[births]] are characterized by a "stormy labor" and other [[abnormalities]] of "delivery." Other [[spiritual]] [[births]] are a [[natural]] and [[normal]] [[growth]] of the [[recognition]] of [[supreme]] [[values]] with an enhancement of spiritual [[experience]], albeit no [[religious]] [[development]] occurs without [[conscious]] [[effort]] and [[positive]] and [[individual]] [[determinations]]. [[Religion]] is never a [[passive]] [[experience]], a [[negative]] [[attitude]]. What is termed the "birth of religion" is not directly [[associated]] with so-called [[conversion]] [[experiences]] which usually characterize religious [[episodes]] occurring later in life as a result of [[mental]] [[conflict]], [[emotional]] [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Psychological_repression repression], and [[temperamental]] upheavals.
