You are welcome and are probably wise not to Nightlion, it might cause you to go crazy with the amount of mental gymnastics required.
No, I rather enjoy mental gymnastics when a real problems needs to be solved. The fly-in-the-ointment nit picking of unqualified people fails to interest me.
Who gives a copper when atheist, and prophet haters make a man an offender?
Prophets will critique prophets. Just look at the mess religion is in because the unwashed have so much to say about everything.
So you say Oliver Cowdery made the Michael, Adam connection first? He was suppose to become the Second Witness and open up mysteries that had been kept hidden from the foundation of the world. If Michael/Adam was his first correct hit, it was possible his one and only wonder.
D&C 6:25-28
25 And, behold, I grant unto you a gift, if you desire of me, to translate, even as my servant Joseph.
26 Verily, verily, I say unto you, that there are records which contain much of my gospel, which have been kept back because of the wickedness of the people;
27 And now I command you, that if you have good desires—a desire to lay up treasures for yourself in heaven—then shall you assist in bringing to light, with your gift, those parts of my scriptures which have been hidden because of iniquity.
28 And now, behold, I give unto you, and also unto my servant Joseph, the keys of this gift, which shall bring to light this ministry; and in the mouth of two or three witnesses shall every word be established.
Now we can wonder if this opened the rift between these two. This revelation was early-on but later I can see Joseph concerned that a learned prophet might run away with all the glory, or lord over him and trample what he owned and must hold inviolate, which was the power of godliness, the Restored Gospel, which the Mormons were not getting as they should as per D&C 84:50-59 in 1831.

Religion is such a mess because men are involved.
(Nevo, Jan 23) And the Melchizedek Priesthood may not have been restored until the summer of 1830, several months after the organization of the Church.

Are you trying to provoke Simon into calling you out, once more, for hating males?
I can hardly believe that he has let so much time pass by without one of his feeble accusations.
