Most mainstream protestant religions recognize the LDS as a Christian sect

This astounding claim is without foundation. It is true that the more "liberal" denominations are more "accepting" of deviant theological beliefs. However, I know of no denomination which has formally accepted the LDS as a legitimate Christian church.

Mormonism has a long history of antipathy towards Christian churches and denominations, which have been called "an abomination" by Mormon founders. One can therefore understand the concerns of those who are suspicious regarding the "makeover" that the LDS church has been undergoing in the press and Mormon PR.

People need to post comments at that site and bury that incredible lie.

No churches think that Mormonism is Christian, and that includes the Catholic and Orthodox churches.

We are going to see a flood of this altering of reality and Christian truth if Romney is nominated.

The most common tactic is to separate "Evangelical" from Protestant, Catholic, and Orthodox, and pretend that only a few "fundamentalists" don't accept Mormonism as Christian, we need Catholics to speak up when that happens, Pope John II pronounced on the subject, and rejected Mormon baptism as non-Christian. The Orthodox church openly uses the label "cult" when explaining that Mormons are not Christian.
