Perhaps it's also convenient to interpret divine encounters as only given to those who'd never reject such signs anyway. My position is that if one is already predisposed to accept dreams and burning bosoms as evidence, then why bother giving them such signs? The predisposition to faith would be sufficient to seal one's salvation.
I don't find these stories compelling as evangelism tools, as all religions have adherents with powerful personal encounter stories. It's best to not use them as data to persuade since Christians aren't the only people that experience them.
