Mormons are not Christians. I used to be LDS. Their doctrines insult God, Christ, the Cross, everything Christians hold dear. They also believe God was once a man, man can become Gods themselves, salvation by works, the Christ and Satan are ‘spirit brothers’, that Christ was created and had to earn His godhood, that there are 3 Gods, not one, that are only ‘one’ in purpose, and that they (the Mormons) are the ONLY real Christians, the rest of us are deceived by Satan and are in his employ.
I can provide documentation for all of the above, from LDS’s OWN sources.
Their use of the Bible is limited, used out of context, twisted and they denigrate the Bible which is why the need the Book of Mormon (which they places above the Bible) and a modern prophet (who is very closed to being worshiped by them). The teach and believe that the Bible is corrupted, mostly by the Catholic church.

Also, feel free to freepmail me if you have any specific questions. I was Mormon for several years before I became a Christian.
