They realized what unites the Christian is faith in Christ

Does that include the LDS and the JW?

What separates Rome from Christianity is, well Rome. The same Rome that schmoozes with Muslims calls us heretics

By your definition, as long as they have faith in Christ they are united with the rest of Christians. So, which is it?

Mormons believe Jesus is the son of God, but they do not believe Jesus is God.

That would put them outside the historic, orthodox definition of "Christian."
