The first time I met with a Mormon family I asked them what they were as far as their faith went — the answer I got was “we’re Christians”. That was over 25 years ago, and I’ve never heard anyone in the LDS faith teach that we aren’t Christians.

I know we have some different doctrinal beliefs than other Christian denominations, but we believe in the same Jesus from the same Bible, so I think it’s a very fair and accurate appellation.

Norm that is not an honest statement and its been show to you time and again. The Jesus of the Bible always was and is God, not a created being formed from 'intelligences' between a man who progressed to godhood and one of his goddess wives. Jesus of the Bible never had to seek his own salvation as mormonism teaches.

Really norm, making such simplistic and unfounded claims only points to the intellectual dishonesty of mormon teachings.

What do you believe is the bottom line reason that mainstream Christianity will absolutely NOT accept Mormonism as Christian? I would honestly like to know your perception.

Sorry; but your chosen religion OFFICIALLY casts doubt about the bible's translation.

But; strangely, does NOT consider the EMMENSE work that JS did in re-TRANSLATING it, as your GOD directed him to, to be important enough to be considered SCRIPTURE.

Have they EVER given a rational explanation for this?
