“Marriott thanked Mitt Romney today during a Mormon church service for bringing “positive attention” to the religion . . .”
The religion is Christianity. Mormon (Later Day Saints) is a denomination like Baptist, Catholic, Methodist, Amish, Presbyterian, etc.”

Nope, sorry. Mormonism might be thrown in there for categorical stats, but it’s not part of Christianity. They themselves deem them not to be “Christian” but distinctly “mormon”.

Depends of course who you ask. Catholics lump them along with all evangelicals as heretics. Lutheran? Mormon? It’s all out there somewhere in hell to them.

From an evangelical/biblical view, they are in some technical sense a “Christian” religion, in the sense that other historical church heresies are “Christian” even though defining Jesus Christ as being incapable of salvation in the traditional sense.

You are incorrect. Mormons do indeed claim to be Christian. However, Mormons claim not to be Protestant.
