DaveH, how many prophets have there been, Joseph Smith to today,
DAVEH: I don't know.
and how many of them, other than Joseph Smith, have received revelation directly from the LDS god?
DAVEH: Again....I don't know.
Those would be found in the D&C, right?
DAVEH: Some would have, but the D&C does not contain all of them.

Thanks
Do you disagree with the fact that for a Mormon the Living Prophet is the ultimate Authority on this earth?
DAVEH: I can't think of anybody else who would be better to follow than one who communes with God, do you Kevin?
How do you determine just WHEN to FOLLOW the PROPHET?
DAVEH: If God instructs a prophet to tell his people to do something, I would think that would be the time to follow him. If God doesn't specifically instruct his prophet on particular details, but that prophet choses to lead the people in a direction he perceives the Lord would want him to go....I would think it would also be advisable to follow the prophet. In times of strife and confusion, having a prophet to rally around seems to me like a good idea, if for nothing else other than to maintain unity in the Lord's followers, give direction/direction, consoling and a reminder that the Lord does not leave his fold unattended.
