You can't add Mormons to the list. The Mormons differ from Orthodxx christianity in their beliefs about Christ

Oh, good grief. Not that old saw...

The Mormons worship Jesus as the Christ, the Redeemer, the Only Begotten Son of God -

I think GOD will decide if they are therefore Christians - not the stiff-necked amoung us who presume to speak for God...

CHRISTIAN:

1. of, pertaining to, or derived from Jesus Christ or His teachings: a Christian faith.

2. of, pertaining to, believing in, or belonging to the religion based on the teachings of Jesus Christ: Spain is a Christian country.

3. of or pertaining to Christians: many Christian deaths in the Crusades.

4. exhibiting a spirit proper to a follower of Jesus Christ; Christlike: She displayed true Christian charity.

5. decent; respectable: They gave him a good Christian burial.

6. human; not brutal; humane: Such behavior isn't Christian.

–noun 7. a person who believes in Jesus Christ; adherent of Christianity.

8. a person who exemplifies in his or her life the teachings of Christ: He died like a true Christian.

The Mormon's fit every above criteria - yet people still maintain they aren't Christian because they don't believe in the Trinity = which the earlier followers didn't either -

[what's up]

Mormons believe that they will be gods one day. They do not believe that the Trinity has always been and always will be the only Deity .

Mormons are NOT Orthodox christians.

One of the most important was left off your list:

CHRISTIAN:

1. One who believes Jesus Christ is God through faith alone in Christ alone.
or
1. One who believes Christ is the Jewish, God-Man, King, Messiah,
or
1. One who through faith alone in Christ alone i.e. believes God alone provides salvation.

“not the stiff-necked amoung us who presume to speak for God...”

An interesting phrase from the Bible.

It took me a while to understand what stiff-necked meant.

And the camel through the eye of the needle.

Many things are easily misunderstood, in the Bible, because we don’t have the same frame of reference vocabulary wise.

At least here in the West.

I think GOD will decide if they are therefore Christians

Absolutely.

But since Mormons believe that Jesus and Lucifer are brothers born of Mr. & Mrs. God, they have to do a lot of dancing around to claim that Jesus is the only begotten Son of God.
