Oh yes.

One of the reasons most mainstream chriysects consider Mormons to not be Christian’s is because they’re not trinitarians - that god is three beings in one. As an example.

Trinitarianism teaches that they’re all the same being, just with 3 different whosiwhatits that they can’t even agree on what they even are.

Jesus lacks attributes the father and Holy Spirit have, making him less than fully god, and he has attributes that they don’t have, etc.

Which when pressed, most christians will fall into one of the first heresies- partialism. Which was part of the Arian Heresy (that Jesus was created and distinct, not fully god)

The problem is that Jesus couldn’t be the messiah (he did none of the messianic things, and wasn’t of the line of David, and even if Joseph was his father, Joseph was of a line cursed to never produce a king….)

So if Jesus is neither god nor messiah, why worship him?
