 The Title ""Mormonism and Christianity"" 

I find that the title of this article immediately implies that Mormons are not Christians.  Would you say ""Catholics and Christians"" or ""Presbyterians and Christians""?  I feel a much better title would be something like ""The Controversy about 'Are Mormons Christians?'"" or just ""Are Mormons Christians?"".  I believe this is what you are really trying to discuss.

As for my personal opinion on this topic:  I have studied many religions.  The differences between Hindus, Buddhists, Jews, Muslims and Christians are obvious.  At this level, Mormons are certainly within the sphere of Christianity and Christian thought.  I doubt that members of any of these other religions would consider Mormons anything other than Christians.  Only from within ""Traditional Christianity"" is there a controversy.  Just because Sunni Muslims believe the Shia are not truly Muslims, does that place them outside the Moslem world?
