In Alma 30, Korihor—labeled an atheist but more plausibly an agnostic or opportunist—is questioned about his disbelief in God.

 Alma’s reply mirrors the weak reasoning still used by believers today: that everything testifies of God’s existence, while the skeptic has “only his word” to the contrary.

 Yet Alma reverses the logical roles, posturing as plaintiff rather than defendant in a debate about divine reality.

 The burden of proof, however, always rests with those making extraordinary claims—not with those who doubt them.

 Faith cannot masquerade as evidence, nor belief as knowledge.
