I accept being under God’s dominion and having a close relationship with the divine, but theologically and philosophically promoting humans to Godhead is bizarre and quite dangerous. That’s why Mormons are held in distain by Christian denominations. Godhead leads to a sense of unmitigated ego and hubris (a la Harry Reid). I am not the only one who will feel this way come elections.

Basically, Mormons are a polytheistic cult that believes in ancestor worship. They believe in Baptism of the dead, becoming Gods, secret rites, celestial polygamy, etc. etc.

Well, since you won’t post your own references that you claim make us so evil, I’ll do it for you, plus a few more. The doctrine to be a joint heir with Christ is sacred and holy to many trying to overcome the world, to be mroe like Christ in word, action and thought.

Gen. 3: 22 man is become as one of us.
Ps. 82: 6 ye are gods, and all of you are children of the most High.
Matt. 5: 48 Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father.
John 10: 34 (Ps. 82: 1-8; D&C 76: 58) Is it not written in your law . . . Ye are gods.
Acts 17: 29 we are the offspring of God.
Rom. 8: 17 heirs of God, and joint-heirs with Christ.
2 Cor. 3: 18 changed into the same image from glory to glory.
Gal. 4: 7 if a son, then an heir of God through Christ.
Eph. 4: 13 Till we all come . . . unto a perfect man.
1 Jn. 3: 2 when he shall appear, we shall be like him.
Rev. 3: 21 him that overcometh will . . . sit with me in my throne.
Matt. 25: 21. Thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many things: enter thou into the joy of thy lord.

Just as a follow up to that, to truly understand another is to learn about them, rather than go off half cocked ready to fight.
