Yeah I can understand that for sure.

For me (I'm a Christian) the thing is, we have this reliable eyewitness testimony of Jesus and his miracles (in the Gospels) - they all agree and insofar as we have archaeological evidence it confirms them. There's plenty of internal agreement and we have independent non-biblical corroboration of much of what they describe

as an aside, there was an atheist cold-case homicide detective who applied his investigative skills to the gospels and came out the other side affirming that they are reliable - he wrote a great book about what he found

then you have Joseph Smith. he claimed to perform a miracle, there were no eyewitnesses to the miracle, and he couldnt replicate the miracle.

To me, God gives us plenty to know that He exists just by beholding creation - and then on top of that he sent His Son to take our punishment in the single most lavish act of love ever displayed. Then he gave us evidence for that too and made sure it was propagated (the NT documents have thousands more copies than any other ancient document at all - so we can check them for accuracy easily)

So he gives us plenty of info to find Him and know Him, but not so much that He overrides our free will, because love must be freely given.

So I think to combat the truth of God you have Satan leading people like Joseph Smith into creating false versions of the truth, because hey, most ex Mormon/ex JW/etc people have no interest going forward in hearing about Christianity.
