Seen with his Spiritual Eye
John H. Gilbert, one of the printers of the first Book of Mormon, counted that he spoke with Martin Harris, one of the three witnesses of the actual gold plates, and financer.
When John Gilbert asked Martin Harris if he actually saw the plates, Martin Harris reported that he saw the plates with his spiritual eyes.

I've read your journal and can see myself 10 years ago as I began my struggle with Mormonism. It's not easy, but the intellectual freedom that you wil gain is so very worth it.
From the time I discovered the truth about Joseph Smith until I resigned took 5 years. I was lucky not to be in Utah. My best friend during this time was Orwell's novel 1984. You will feel like Winston Smith if you already don't.
Best of luck to you and hang in there!
I appreciate your support. It is pretty hard to do this in the middle of Utah County, which you probably know, if you've ever been here.
