In strictly theological terms, Catholics do not consider Mormons (Latter-day Saints) as Christians for these reasons:
Rejection of the Trinity: Catholicism affirms one God in three co-equal, co-eternal Persons (Nicene Creed). Mormonism teaches three separate gods (God the Father, Jesus, and Holy Ghost) united in purpose, not in substance (tritheism).
Different understanding of God: Catholics hold God as an eternal, immaterial Spirit who has always been God. Mormonism teaches God the Father has a physical body, was once a mortal man who progressed to godhood, and that humans can become gods.
Additional scriptures and revelation: Catholicism holds that public revelation ended with the apostles; Scripture and Sacred Tradition are sufficient. Mormonism adds the Book of Mormon, Doctrine and Covenants, and Pearl of Great Price as equal or superior scripture, plus ongoing prophetic revelation.
Fundamentally different Christology: Catholic teaching is that Jesus is the eternal, uncreated second Person of the Trinity. Mormonism views Jesus as the literal spirit-brother of all humans, a created being who became divine (similar to other gods in their cosmology).
Apostolic succession and authority: The Catholic Church traces its priesthood directly to the apostles through unbroken succession. Mormonism claims the original Church fell into total apostasy, requiring Joseph Smith’s restoration with new authority.
These are only a few of the differences which places Mormonism outside historic, orthodox Christianity as defined by the early Church councils. Bottom line: LDS theology is a radical departure from the fundamental tenets of what one holds as a Christian.
This was always the plan. Hegseth is on a Christian Nationalist mission. It’s time people woke up to it. While we are at war his priorities are making the military a white male evangelical force. Congress must act. This is generational damage.
Zelenskyy: We've got messages that they are ready for meeting only if Ukraine will do what they decided in Anchorage. With all respect to the President of the United States, but you can't cut our country. You can't make decisions without us, about us. It's unacceptable and it will not bring peace.
1. In the absence of fundamental change, especially among Democratic leaders, I can't say I have a lot of hope these days. That's in spite of all the polling showing that Donald Trump is the most unpopular president ever.
The Democratic party is throwing their friends under the bus for no reason. People are non-reactive to loss of Black voting rights. Nobody cares that Jews are being targeted for murder. Now? Domestic violence doesn't matter. MeToo never mattered at all.
