 ::Categorization Fundamentally, there are three perspectives to bear in mind here and I'm not sure that any of them has a trump card: Mormons themselves, (other) Protestants, and third-party groups (e.g. religious studies scholars.) Considering how Mormons view themselves, (other) Protestants view Mormons, and how third parties view them can give us a perspective on what to do, but if as you say Mormons don't view themselves as Protestants, then I'm find with upmerging them to more generic Christians. —❤☮☺M☯ "
