You must be one of the very few that does not know I am a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints.

That is the we i speak of.

polytheists
Since we do not force Father and Jesus into the same personage, yes they are both part of the Godhead. Jesus takes His direction from Father.

“””about spirit children in heaven with a spirit-Father and spirit-Mother in heaven”””

I said nothing about spirit parents, just spirit children.

I apologize to you, then. You are the first and only Mormon I have run into on FR, and I had not previously made your acquaintance. If anything I said was insulting to you personally, I apologize and intend not to offend you.

I was thrown off when you said "Remember, we..." as if I shared these distinctive beliefs with you.

You also said, "Since we do not force Father and Jesus into the same personage..." I again didn't catch what you're talking about, since I don't even know anybody who "forces Jesus and the Father into the same personage." I have no idea what that even means.

Evidently as a Mormon you don't believe in the Trinity as understood by historic Christianity over the millennia, i.e. that the Trinity consists of three co-equal, co-eternal, Persons. Not entities jammed into one "personage."

I not sure this discussion is going to be fruitful unless we both stop making any assumptions about then other person's beliefs.

I don't have much time for a real comparison, but I have a good will toward you and wish you well.

I have to go make my lattice-top apple pies. It is quite a project.
