The article is a sales pitch, it barely mentions any differences and it uses the pro-Mormon/anti-Christian tactic of pretending that it is those rascally, bible thumping “Evangelicals” as the only denominations that declare Mormonism as an entirely different, non-Christian religion.

In reality, all Christian denominations agree on Mormonism.

HERE IS THE CATHOLIC TEACHING ON MORMONISM:

“Mormons are not Christians. The Mormons will claim to be Christian because they claim to follow Christ, and believe in the Bible. They say that Jesus is a god, but not THE God. They also believe that Lucifer is the brother of Jesus, and neither do they believe that there is fire in Hell.”

“Mormons say that Christ came to teach the truth, but that it was lost when the Apostles dispersed. No one had the truth for over 1800 years until God saw fit to enlighten Joseph Smith in 1823 (that is why they baptize all the dead people who missed out). Besides their strange historical mis-accounts, Mormons also have a warped theology.”

“By following all the rules and ordinances of God here, Mormon men and women have the potential of also becoming gods”

“Mormons believe that there are many worlds and many gods. Each god is similar to God the Father, having the same powers and omnipotence, and even being able to create their own worlds. “Heavenly Father” is only the name of the god who rules over this world.”

Trust the Catholic truth on Mormonism, or trust what the Mormons (and their fellow travelers) are telling you.

Yeah, I just don't know how those unbelievers over at CHRISTIANITY TODAY can live with themselves. /sarc

Sorry to be snarky, but I find that comment ridiculous, and false on the face of it. They are not saying that Mormonism is Christian. Ultimately they are arguing that if you could vote for Adams, Washington or Jefferson, you might consider voting for Romney. Do they put him in the same class as those guys? No, of course not. But really, next to Obama? If you live in a battleground state and you don't vote you might as well be resigned to 4 more years of strengthening the socialist/communist outreach in America.
