Uh.... didn't Joseph Smith have a dream that the golden plates were buried in his yard? ... And isn't the Book of Mormon written in English? By virtue of the fact that the Book of Mormon exists in English, we have solid, tangible proof that I can physically show you that the plates were indeed buried in Joseph Smith's backyard and that Joseph Smith translated them to English. Twice!
Checkmate, atheists!
No, he only SAID he had a dream about golden plates buried on his property. Hearsay and conjecture.
Theist response: Then how else did he come by the knowledge of the plates being buried there and to go looking for them?
Religions were invented to impress and dupe illiterate, superstitious stone-age peasants. So in this modern, enlightened age of information, what's your excuse? Or are you saying with all your advantages, you were still tricked as easily as those early humans?

There is no better way to convey the least amount of information in the greatest amount of words than to try explaining your religious views.
