Asking again:
Who, exactly, is the *rest of established Christianity*?
Who, exactly, is *mainline* Christianity?
Star Traveler is correct in that no major (or minor that I know of) Christian denomination redognizes The Church of the Latter Day Saints or any other branch of Mormon as "Christian".
Now......Star Traveler, you can stop spamming this thread.
You asked -- "Who, exactly, is the *rest of established Christianity*? Who, exactly, is *mainline* Christianity?"
Check with the "Evangelicals". They'll tell you. Are you really "that out of it" that you don't know? My goodness, I didn't know it was that difficult.
Do you want me to give you a few starters down that track? Let's see, have you checked out the Southern Baptist Convention, the largest Protestant Denomination in the United States? How about the Presbyterians? Have you checked things with them? Or, maybe the Lutherans, that would be a good place to look at, too. You could go to the Methodists, they've had a long and distinctive history in the U.S.
We could go to some of the more recent ones, like some charismatic ones -- perhaps Foursquare...
Does that give you a jump-start?
Regards,
Star Traveler
P.S. -- I'm probably going to get someone mad at me now, because I didn't include them in the historic and traditional Christian churches. Please feel free to "pipe up" if so...
