Psychology

In humanist psychological terms, being "born-again" is largely analogous to a perceptual state of hyper-salience, where one experiences an extreme and jarring change of perceptions, which causes one to believe that one has a new or renewed sense and understanding of oneself and one's relationship to the world. Christians commonly dismiss these theoretical constructs, insisting that much of modern psychology is based on humanist worldviews that are inherently antithetical to spiritual truth.
