After posting a few of his Ruminations, Scott got a little pushback from believing members of the church in the Tiktok community. A few different members of the church recommended that he study Article of Faith 9. The articles of faith are claims of belief. In this episode, Scott addresses Article of Faith 9 as if it were a hypothesis. In science only after careful study of the evidence can a hypothesis become a theory. Is there enough evidence for this hypothesis about prophets and revelation to become a theory, or should we rewrite it in a way that will reflect the evidence?
