I know that mormons are often taught to avoid questions and divert but I don't believe that is honest nor bilical. So, do mormons teach that their god came from another planet and earned his way to godhood, as man may likewise be able to?
Avoid and divert, you will not get a public, definitive answer.
[i]You still have not addressed in YOUR WORDS, the question/comment I posed from the get-go about the planet from which the mormon “god the father” came from. And the mormon concept that there are three gods, not a triune nature god also is in direct contrast to Christianity. But first, address the planet question. Does mormonism behind closed doors, not open to the general public teach that “god the father” comes from a planet with similiar beings and he worked his way up to be able to be a god who could create earth (and its own heave)? Yes, or no?

I don’t mean to speak for the Don, but I would like to comment. I don’t know of any LDS teaching that states God lives on a named planet. God exists, has always existed and is our Creator and Provider and the one we worship. He provided for man’s salvation and exaltation through His son, Jesus Christ, who is one with the Father in purpose. The Holy Ghost is the witness of all things spiritual, and of God the Father and His son, Jesus Christ. The Holy Ghost is part of the Godhead head as defined in LDS doctrine.
The LDS faith recognizes that all are created in the image of God and that they are all His children, thoughout all of God’s creations. Whether that means there are planets populated by others is possible, and if they are, they are God’s children also and would be in His image.
God wants all men to be perfect. What does perfection mean? Is there a limit to man’s perfection if God wants His children to be perfect even as He is? You want to know how God came to be God. Who dares address this issue and not be contradicted or chastized? If man is to be perfect and is in the image of his creator, then why can he not become like his creator? Which is everlasting? God, or the Principles that define God? If God lives on another planet, it is irrelevant to the Atonement of Christ and our faith in God and his Son, our Savior.
Hebrews 5
11 Of whom we have many things to say, and hard to be uttered, seeing ye are dull of hearing.
12 For when for the time ye ought to be teachers, ye have need that one teach you again which be the first principles of the oracles of God; and are become such as have need of milk, and not of strong meat.
13 For every one that useth milk is unskilful in the word of righteousness: for he is a babe.
14 But strong meat belongeth to them that are of full age, even those who by reason of use have their senses exercised to discern both good and evil.
1 Corinthians 3
1 And I, brethren, could not speak unto you as unto spiritual, but as unto carnal, even as unto babes in Christ.
2 I have fed you with milk, and not with meat: for hitherto ye were not able to bear it, neither yet now are ye able.
3 For ye are yet carnal: for whereas there is among you envying, and strife, and divisions, are ye not carnal, and walk as men?
