What I never understood is that everyone says the prophet talks directly to God. Well, don't we talk to God when we pray/meditate? You don't have to be Mormon to talk to God. ANYONE can talk to God. I'm sure God doesn't have a specific way for us to pray either. If the prophet actually HEARS a voice speak to him....record it! I wanna hear if he sounds like Morgan Freeman or James Earl Jones.
When God finally learns to speak for himself, without all of the thousands of middle-men who claim to have a direct line to him, THEN maybe normal people will start believing in him.
