Are Christians Mormons?

LDS leaders share thoughtful insights on Christians and Christianity…
Christians are Imbeciles: “What does the Christian world know about God? Nothing.. They are imbecile and ignorant and in the dark, and the greatest difficulty in the matter is-they are fools and don’t know it.” John Taylor, JD 13:225
Christians Greatest Whoremasters on Earth: “Christians-those poor, miserable priests … are the biggest whoremasters there are on the earth.” Heber C. Kimball JD 5:89
Mormon Christ not Traditional: “They say we do not believe in the traditional Christ of Christianity. There is some substance to what they say.” Gordon B. Hinckley, Ensign, May 2002
Ignorant Animals: “What! are Christians ignorant? Yes, as ignorant of the things of God as the brute beast.” John Taylor, JD 6:25
Islam Better Than Christianity: “I should rather incline, of the two, after all my early traditions, education, and prejudices, to the side of Mahomet, for on this point he is on the side of truth, and the Christian world on the side of idolatry and heathenism.”
Parley P. Pratt, JD, 3:38
Only One True Church on Earth: “This is not just one of a family of Christian churches. This is the Church and kingdom of God, the only true Church upon the face of the earth, according to the Lord’s own words (see D&C 1:30).” Ezra Taft Benson, The Teachings of Ezra Taft Benson, p. 164
Christianity Pack of Nonsense: “We talk about Christianity, but it is a perfect pack of nonsense.” John Taylor, JD, 6:167
Ignorant Christians: “With a regard to true theology, a more ignorant people never lived than the present so-called Christian world.” Brigham Young, JD, 8:199
Christian Ordinances Worthless: “… the order of marriage, baptism, or anything else… If I have been baptized by the Presbyterians, Church of England, Roman Catholics, Greek church, Wesleyans, or by any other religious denomination which denies any later revelation than the Bible, my baptism is good for nothing.” Orson Pratt, JD 16:25
Join True Church or Belong to a Whore: “whoso belongeth not to the church of the Lamb of God belongeth to that great church, which is the mother of abominations; and she is the whore of all the earth.” Nephi, Book of Mormon, 1 Nephi 14:10-11
Satan Inspires Christians: “What is it that inspires professors of Christianity generally with a hope of salvation? It is that smooth, sophisticated influence of the devil.” Joseph Smith, History of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, vol. 5, p. 218
