That doesn't make them not Christian. Just take a look at all the evangelical denominations and tell me the all understand Christ the same way. They don't, and as an inhomogeneous group themselves they therefore do not have authority to pass judgment on the matter.

I beg to differ with that observation blow. Evangelical denominations accept the Trinitarian doctrine expressed in the article - mormonism does not. Evangelical denominations accept the God-man descriptions from the article - mormonism does not. Evangelical denomination accept that Jesus' sacrifice provides the FULL means of salvation - mormons only recognize a 'universal resurrection' with works required to progress past that. So I don't know where you get your definitions of evangelical denominations from, but it is erroneous.

Christ said we must be born of the body and of the spirit to enter the kingdom of God. Sounds like work to me.

Mormonism in a nutshell...

Let me point out to you that after Mormons achieve the Celestial Kingdom, they cease to be Christians (Christ followers). They use Him as an end to a means, then it’s adios as they achieve your own godhood and go off to rule their own world.
