| Nov 9, 2015 at 16:32 | comment | added | Flimzy | @sirdank: It's a matter of definition. There are well-established denominations that consider themselves to be Christians and Universalists. Whether they are considered "protestant" would be the only sticking point... and that's primarily a matter of opinion. | |

| Nov 9, 2015 at 16:31 | comment | added | sirdank | @curiousdannii I have updated my question to more specifically define what it means to accept as Christian and to say that I don't care about possible individual opinions which might cause complication when answering this. | |

| Nov 9, 2015 at 16:25 | comment | added | sirdank | @Flimzy Mentioning universalists seems like a trivial case. As far as I know, there are no Protestant denominations for which universalism is a requisite belief. Also, I mentioned in my question "Protest denominations (not Latter Day Saints themselves)" | |
| Nov 9, 2015 at 16:19 | comment | added | curiousdannii♦ | @Flimzy Oh good point. Depends on the type of universalism though, as some would say they may end up saved even though they're not one of God's people now? I think this question does need to be closed, as every answer will just end up approaching it from a different, contradictory direction. | |
| Nov 9, 2015 at 16:17 | comment | added | Flimzy | If your definition of "Christian" is "saved" or "will end up in heaven," then the answer is clearly yes, as there are a large number of Protestant universalists. | |
| Nov 9, 2015 at 16:16 | comment | added | curiousdannii♦ | There would also be some Protestants who would be willing to call them 'Christian' in the sense that this very site requires, in recognition of their self-identification as Christians, but who would not think they were saved or had a true faith in the gospel. | |
| Nov 9, 2015 at 15:53 | comment | added | Nathaniel is protesting | This is tricky too because there's the question of how many Mormons are Christians. "Do any Protestant denominations believe that individual Mormons can be Christians?" is a different question from "Do any Protestant denominations believe that all/most Mormons are Christians?" | |

add "denomination" and "church-universal" tags
