we both know it wouldn’t change my mind, mine is made up based on personal revelation

Wow! What if JoeSmith had such open-mindedness?

I can hear it now. I can just imagine it in my mind, Jimmy Stewart playing the role of JoeSmith in a Hollywood movie:

"Now, never you mind, Moroni. You just get on back up to wherever you came from, wings or not. I'm not going to change my mind. My mind's made up based upon personal revelation." [Then as wingless Moroni mozies off sullenly, JimmyJoe mutters under his breath, "Sheesh. Gold plates from South America hauled all the way to upstate New York when Arizona would have been just fine & dandy. Who would choose to write a detailed history on gold plates anyway? What? Does he think I was born yesterday? Next thing ya know this Moroni character thinks I'd believe in an invisible bunny!")

If this is meant to be humorous, don’t give up your day job!

Are you claiming to be an angel of light? Or are you claiming to have more light and knowledge that me, can you guarantee me your message is “more direct” than revelation from Him?

I think you are pretty full of yourself to try to top personal revelation from God, but have it your way, convince me you know more then I think, what am I wearing, or pick some other miraculous thing to try to convince me you know and see all, good luck.
