Any Christian group, Catholics, Mormon, Episcopal and others not part of these fundamentalists - that supports these folks would find themselves to be out groups just like Jewish people; their rights would be trampled too.

Mormons don't subscribe to traditional christianity in many respects. For example, most traditional christians don't believe 'As man now is, God once was; as God now is, man may be.' That's considered heresy.
That's just one example of the many basic doctrinal differences between mormonism and traditional christianity. Trad christians don't believe there are three different heavens, they don't believe that Jesus and Lucifer were brothers, or that god was once a man with a physical body, and on and on and on. Traditional christians believe in the existence of hell, mormons don't. They don't believe the gospel had to be 'restored'. The list is endless. That's why many traditional christians reject LDS as christians.
If mormons want to call themselves christians, they can do so. If traditional christians reject that claim, they can do so.

Absolutely. And you count the Jehovah's Witnesses, the 7th Day Adventists, and on and on and on......
Mormons are not Christians FYI
They don't believe that Christ was the Son of God? That's news to me and my Mormon friends...

But is that enough to disqualify them as Christians?
