From that article you posted...

After he lived a mortal life, Mormons believe that the Father died, was resurrected, and achieved his godhood[63] along with at least one wife whom Mormons refer to as the Heavenly Mother.[64] Some believe that the Heavenly Father and Mother gave birth to the spirits of humanity through a sexual union.[65] Modern Mormons believe that Jesus, the Son, was the first born of these spirits.[66]

Believing you can become a god...I would say that is pretty blasphemous.
A lot of Mormons one day are gonna be pretty upset when Jesus tells them "I do not know you"

Nah. Mormons will rot in the ground for eternity after they die just like the rest of us

No, Mormons don't acknowledge Jesus as the Savior, just as a really successful guy with a really big pyramid of souls. This is why every Christian denomination rejects their baptism and has done so for all of history.
Believing one can ascend to be an equal of Jesus is pretty blasphemous in my opinion, and completely denies the divinity of Christ.

Damn shame you can't feel the same way.
When Protestant churches quit trying to claim that Jesus actually turned water into grape juice then we can talk. Also, the lack of stardards amongst especially the Evangelical churches really grinds my gears.

Yes. Heterodox, but they accept Christ as their Savior.

And I think it is horrific how much the Catholic Church covered up sexual abuse of boys by Catholic priests over the years.
No perfect church exists because they are all made up of flawed sin-filled humans.
Point is...Catholics and Protestants certainly have things we disagree on....but what we do share is our basic belief in the Gospel.

No but Catholics aren’t either in my opinion.

This has nothing to do with theological or dogmatic differences. It only highlights that churches are run by men who are all capable of even heinous sin.

Yeah you are showing your ignorance Mormons are not Christians
Or I look at it from an anthropological point of view and not a bias of faith. It’s a subset that has some deviations, some may be major but there is a lot of this under the Christian religions.

You can consider yourself a member of mensa too but at the end of the day..

I couldn't care less if you or anyone else considers me Christian. I am secure with my relationship with my Savior. I just find it fascinating to read the different opinions.

So, Patrick, you believe...
Foundational to Mormon teaching on salvation is the statement of The Book of Mormon: “For we know that it is by grace that we are saved, after all we can do” (2 Nephi 25:23). Salvation is faith in Christ and obedience. Christ’s suffering in Gethsemane and His atonement enable mortals to achieve salvation through moral choices of the human will (which is inherently good and can attain toward perfection and worthiness) and obedience to the Mormon Gospel and its ordinances. The LDS Missionary Guide thus speaks of Christ making it “possible for Adam and all of us to repent and overcome spiritual death.” Christ’s resurrection “made possible our return to our Heavenly Father.”37(emphases added) In summary, “[Jesus] became our savior and has done his part to help us return to our heavenly home. It is now up to each of us to do our part and to prove ourselves worthy of exaltation."38
