Aren't Mormons and Muslims similar. They think Jesus is not divine. They practice polygamy?

Mormons also profess to come from the lineage of Ishmael.

Well, Jehovah Witnesses also take Jesus as not divine. No big deal. I'm a Muslim and don't know much about Mormons. In Islam polygamy is just an option. Ya, we don't consume alcohol at all. It's nice to know that Mormons don't too.
Besides small similarities, there are many difference too, alright. Don't speculate.

There is one group of LDS that practices polygamy the main group does not. For those who say they do not I knew a few that did they have passed away now but this was about 15 years ago. Also ever here of Warren Jeffs. Both religions also have other books besides the bible.

Mormons are polytheists. They do in fact Jesus is divine, as all humans are in potentiality, and all the Gods - God the Father, His Wives, Their Parents and Siblings, et Ceteri et Cetera. Muslims believe in only one God.
With regards to polygamy, for Muslims it is an option. For Mormons it is a requirement for highest exaltation according to Doctrine and Covenants, but it is in abeyance due to the laws of the United States.

Mormons stopped practicing polygamy over 100 years ago. And they do think Jesus is divine, since well, his name is in the title of their church. The church of JESUS Christ of Latter Day Saints.

I just hope you are kidding with that question. Mormons know Jesus is one of the God head, and he is the only way to be saved. We are true Christians in every sense of the word.

MORMONS DON'T PRACTICE POLYGAMY!!!
Maybe if you're this confused about The Church of JESUS CHRIST of Latter Day Saints(aka Mormons) and what they believe you should go to www.mormon.org or www.lds.org!

Correct, Mormons don't drink alcohol.

We believe Jesus is the Christ, the Messiah, our Lord and Saviour. He is the only begotten Son of God in the flesh, sent here to be the final Perfect Sacrifice for our sins. If you accept Him as your Lord and Saviour, and repent of your sins, are baptised by immersion for the remission of your sins, etc., you can one day return to Your Heavenly Father (and, no, sorry, no 70 virgins or any of that crap).
No, we do not practice plural marriage any more.
