So, Mormon's are Christians even though; they don't believe in the Christ of traditional Christianity; they believe God was once a man; that there are many many Gods with multiple wives; and that we can also become Gods over our own planets.
But, the FLDS aren't Mormon's even though they believe in exactly the same restoration of exactly the same Gospel by exactly the same Prophet with exactly the same scriptures as the LDS.
I thought I had it correct but gdemetz stated:
Of course, they are "Mormons" also, but they do not belong to The Church of Jesus Christ of LDS.
I thought The Church had categorically stated that the FLDS aren't Mormon's?

It's a classic dodge. Certainly many people can be referring to a particular church including the FLDS who are Mormons. Mormons are those who believe in Joesph as well as the Book of Mormon.

When referring to people or organizations that practice polygamy, the terms "Mormons," "Mormon fundamentalist," "Mormon dissidents," etc. are incorrect. The Associated Press Stylebook notes: "The term Mormon is not properly applied to the other ... churches that resulted from the split after [Joseph] Smith's death."
So, According to LDS Mormon's you are not Mormon if you follow a Church that isn't the Latter Day Saint Church. Okay, got it.
Hmmm...
Perhaps the Christian Churches should put a style guide of their own out.
The term Christian is not properly applied to the other...churches that resulted from the split after [Jesus] Christ's death.

When referring to Church members, the term "Latter-day Saints" is preferred, though "Mormons" is acceptable.
It seems the Church PR and Marketing Department didn't get the memo in time to stop their ''I'm a Latter Day Saint'' TV Campaign from being given the less preferable nickname for members of the Church...
