No, Mormons are not polytheist. We worship only the Godhead; the Father, Son and Holy Ghost. All else is immaterial for our salvation. Hindus worship multiple Gods. I’m really not sure where you are getting a comparison.
So, there is no other God outside of the one who create the planet earth?
Also, are you saying that God was never a man on another planet?
God created the universe, and all the worlds that are in it. Still looking beyond the mark?
Or in this case, the John? ;-)
John 1:3
All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made.
Not be a moron, but ...
You are saying there is only one God. Period. End of story. No other God in this universe or any other.
inconsistent with either Protestantism or Catholicisms view of the Trinity
MEGO!

Don't you KNOW yet?
It's because it wasn't TRANSLATED correctly!
It's right there in the AoF - if you'd ever read and understand it!
--MormonDude(No; the LDS Organization®, based in SLC, does NOT consider the JST to be SCRIPTURE)
That is SO unkind!
YOU call yourself a 'christian' and yet besmirch the good name of our recently departed, doddering old fool that way.
SHAME!

The average Mormon knows little about the more radical teachings of his religion.
He thinks he is a Christian and his teachers do nothing to dissuade him from that belief.
You are KIDDING? Right?
Your godhead entity has TWO physical bodies.
The Orthopdox Christian GODhead has only ONE with a physical body.
This 'answer' will be illuminating or obfuscating.
Question: “What is henotheism?”
Answer: According to the American Heritage Dictionary, henotheism is the belief in one god without denying the existence of others.
Seems to fit Mormonism pretty accurately.

And just this last week, my cat, an Apostle of Garfield, had a hairball which was coughed up and mounted in a jar on the mantle between two Glade candles....
I'm busy composing a fifty-page address addressing the event.
You mean composting ?
This is all that's necessary.
