I like the topic. Thanks!

Some of the answers require an S and others don't. Probably should be consistent, or make it so it doesn't matter.

Gotta agree with this one. A black emperor was definitely not Jesus.

Mormons are definitely Christian. The Bible is one of their four scriptures. Did a whole project on denominations in eighth grade, and the Mormons were definitely one of them.

Arians are a little more controversial. Those are technically Christians, but not in a traditional sense. Jesus is not held at as high authority as in most other denominations.

Mormonism does not believe in the same Christ. Theirs is a distorted version of Him which is totally contradictory to what we find in biblical scripture, partially as a result of the use of texts other than the Bible like the Book of Mormon, which again, its mere existence goes directly against the Word of God as demonstrated in Deuteronomy 12:32.
