The "born again" part is universal. It says so, right there in John 3:5.
For the sake of the previous discussion, here's a different take from the main story...
"During WWII, four Chaplains went down on the U.S.Troop Ship DORCHESTER when she was torpedoed that bitterly frigid pre-dawn morning of February 3rd, 1943.
"Although the DORCHESTER was part of a six ship convoy consisting of the U.S. Coast Guard Cutters TAMPA, COMANCHE and ESCANABA plus two freighters, the water was so cold and the night so dark that only about one third of the ship's compliment could be saved...
The Four Chaplains, Rev. Clark V. Poling (Dutch Reformed), Rabbi Alexander D. Goode (Jewish), Rev. Fr. John P. Washington (Roman Catholic) and Rev. George L. Fox (Methodist), gathered on the deck to rally the men.
Three of the Chaplains were young men but Rev. Fox had been under fire in World War One, before he became a minister. All four remained calm, assisted the troops, gave away their own life jackets to soldiers who had none and then linked arm in arm on the deck of the sinking ship as they prayed for the safety of the others.
When last seen they still stood together as the sea closed over their heads..."
Maybe we all could learn from the example of these good men long ago...I believe they all continue to see the face of God in his glory. God bless.
