Um, no. The LDS Church does not reject Christianity. It rejects the traditional Christianity as founded upon the creeds of the 4th century.Um, no!
A FEW SIMPLE QUESTIONS:
- Can you provide evidence Jesus and/or any of the original apostles ever taught there are more gods than the one God revealed in the Bible?
- Can you provide evidence Jesus and/or any of the original apostles ever taught God is a glorified, perfected human being with a body of flesh and bone?
- Can you provide evidence Jesus and/or any of the original apostles ever taught God is married?
- Can you provide evidence Jesus and/or any of the original apostles ever taught Jesus is the spirit brother of Lucifer?
- Can you provide evidence Jesus and/or any of the original apostles ever taught Jesus is the Literal son of God who was begotten naturally by an immortal Father?
- Can you provide evidence Jesus and/or any of the original apostles ever taught you are saved by grace coupled by works?
- Can you provide evidence Jesus and/or any of the original apostles ever taught you must accept Joseph Smith in order to receive salvation?
- Can you provide evidence Jesus and/or any of the original apostles ever taught Prophet Lorenzo Snow's famous couplet:
As man now is, God once was. As God now is, Man may become.
- Can you provide evidence Jesus and/or any of the original apostles ever taught you will be sealed to your spouse for time and all eternity so you may someday become gods and goddesses ruling over your own planet?
- Can you provide evidence Jesus and/or any of the original apostles ever taught a woman will only be resurrected if her husband calls forth her Temple Name from beyond the veil?
- Can you provide evidence Jesus and/or any of the original apostles ever taught Christianity would cease to exist for a time after the death of the twelve apostles?
- Can you provide evidence Jesus and/or any of the original apostles ever taught of places called Kolob, Oliblish, Enish-go-on-dosh (which borrows its light from Kolob through the medium of Kae-e-vanrash); or taught this planet receives its power through the medium of Kli-flos-is-es, or Hah-ko-kau-beam (stars receiving light from the revolutions of Kolob)?
If you answered NO to any one of these questions (and I can go on with many more), then it can be convincingly argued the LDS Church rejects Christianity.

Zakeet,
Another excellent post! Bravo!
Don’t forget though, mormonism, like Jello,
will not allow itself to be nailed to a wall.
It is in constant motion and served as the
inspiration for “Jigglers”.

That [list] certainly takes care of that [question], doesn’t it?
