Final answer:

The claim is false; the 95 Theses were not discussed at the Fourth Council of Lateran but were addressed years later at the Council of Trent.

Step-by-step explanation:

No, the statement that the 95 Theses were discussed at the Forth Council of Latern is false. The 95 Theses were written by Martin Luther in 1517, with the intent of sparking a discussion within the Church to lead to reform. The issues raised by Luther, such as the sale of indulgences and justification by faith, were addressed later at the Council of Trent which began in 1545, several decades after the publication of the 95 Theses. The Council of Trent was a response to the Protestant Reformation and it established important Catholic doctrines in opposition to Protestant beliefs.
