God calls those he chooses, so if people are being turned off by the truth, because they believe in the science of Man more than the word of God, that is because this is the history God has chosen for our time.

I imagine if our modern-day scientists had lived in the time of Moses, they would have explained how impossible the exodus was, much less the idea that bread would just fall out of the sky, or that stone tablets would magically have words appear on them.

I imagine you are partially correct. However, they would not "have explained" impossible things, they'd simply have asked for evidence that those events occurred. That's a BIG difference. And, I also imagine many, many people in Moses' day had the same doubts, hence, the world wasn't instantly converted to Judaism immediately.

BTW, Joseph Smith found some magical tablets in New York with a magical text on it. And that was far more recent. Why don't you believe him?

Isn't that a rather Calvinist view? Sorry, I don't ascribe to the predestination/baptist view so this is meaningless.
