Dear Zakeet,

If one gives the LDS the benefit of the doubt on how they view the “godhead” and the three beings that comprise it, one can count them as henotheistic.

Nonetheless, henotheism is a species of polytheism, in that the very nature of one’s god is radically different if one admits to the existence of other gods.

I agree with both of you.

However, any way we want to split theological hairs, Mormons aren't Christian. No way. No how.
