I'd go with #3.  I think Mormonism is loosely Christian in the same sense Unitarian-Universalists are.

While Unitarian-Universalism has Christian roots and there are Christian UUs (such as myself) UU is not a Christian religion any longer.

As for Mormonism, whether you consider it Protestant depends upon whether one considers the Restorationist branch of Christianity to be a species of Protestantism or a genus of its own.

I always thought everything that wasn't Orthodox or Catholic was Protestant.

That would be a weird definition of Protestantism

What's next, scoff at the idea of civil disobedience just because Gandhi was racist?  Question the effects of sending gifted speakers to foreign countries to peaceably settle relations just because the advocate was a Euro-centric segregationist?

Getting curious here:

- How was Gandhi a racist? (towards Africans?)

- Which segregationist?
