why not ask where and how i grew up rather than assume you have it all figured out.
Because I read what you wrote:

Perhaps you were unclear but it sounds very much like your experience aligns entirely with your existing beliefs.

Or because we can read.

I did. You just can't accept where that leads. I'll summarize for you. Nowhere in your story do you observe anything supernatural, much less divine. You didn't see him appear, you didn't see him disappear. You made a bunch of unfounded assumptions based on a conclusion that you want to reach. You started with a conclusion and fitted the facts to it. You have no evidence that your visitor wasn't an agent of the Devil, a prospect that I view as only slightly more absurd than an angel. Your story is no more original than millions of others that all contradict it.
