BTW why didn't you write God but G-d instead? And H- instead of He?



@ ztodd: Even though I find it hard to believe just in other people's words alone ( I am an atheist for some reason right? ), thanks for those links and brief explanation ztodd
No problem - I don't expect you to just believe my words or anyone else's. The only way to come to believe and to know that God exists is by having personal spiritual experiences with Him. This can be achieved by the power of the Holy Ghost. This passage gives a promise of how you can know the Book of Mormon is true, and also how you can know the truth of all things -

From Moroni 10 -

3 Behold, I would exhort you that when ye shall read these things, if it be wisdom in God that ye should read them, that ye would remember how merciful the Lord hath been unto the children of men, from the creation of Adam even down until the time that ye shall receive these things, and ponder it in your hearts.

4 And when ye shall receive these things, I would exhort you that ye would ask God, the Eternal Father, in the name of Christ, if these things are not true; and if ye shall ask with a sincere heart, with real intent, having faith in Christ, he will manifest the truth of it unto you, by the power of the Holy Ghost.

5 And by the power of the Holy Ghost ye may know the truth of all things.

6 And whatsoever thing is good is just and true; wherefore, nothing that is good denieth the Christ, but acknowledgeth that he is.

7 And ye may know that he is, by the power of the Holy Ghost; wherefore I would exhort you that ye deny not the power of God; for he worketh by power, according to the faith of the children of men, the same today and tomorrow, and forever.
