Wow. Just... wow. Your evidence is a delusional dream/hallucination about Jesus and hell along with an anecdotal story about some kind of psychic homeless angel who magically knew everything about you? When you say, "But again, with a hard heart these experiences would have been forgotten as being a dream and a hichhicker would made a few dozen lucky guesses." It's not the heart that would question these experiences, it would be a rational mind employing critical thinking, something which you clearly abandoned when your heart softened along with your head. Then you draw analogies from a karate movie which has no bearing on whether God is objectively verifiable or visible. I will grant you this, however: Mr. Miyagi and Daniel are just as fictional as your God.
As for hardened hearts, try this experiment: Stand about 20 yards away from a brick wall that you can actually see. Run full speed. Harden your heart. Pretend the wall is not real with all your might. Don't raise your hands. See if the brick wall vanishes. If it does, that would be evidence that tangible things vanish with a hardened heart. Or, if you actually see short Jesus again while you are actually awake, try the experiment with him. Run straight at him, harden you heart, and see if he magically vanishes before you crash into him.
From what you've described, God/Jesus is so weak, he literally cannot appear to me if my heart is hardened. (I wish my in-laws were that weak.) God/Jesus is so insubstantial as to only appear in dreams or hallucinations. (Conveniently never in any public venue to be caught on camera.) God's presence is so obscure and inconsequential that "if your[sic] looking to see only through the visual spectrum and don't know what to look for then there would be no way for you to know if you've seen the evidence of God or not." (Which is indistinguishable from God not being there at all.)
Clearly, I'm upsetting you since you can't abstain from calling me "douche" or "D-bag". So the last word in this discussion will be yours, if you chose to take it. Although, if you get this short, "active blue-eyed" Jesus on video, let me know. Or, if you run into magic psychic angel homeless dude again and, assuming he isn't also camera shy, post him to YouTube. Until then, I'll assume you have absolutely no empirical evidence to offer whatsoever and leave you to your private delusions where you can wax-on, wax-off with Jesus as much as you desire.
