In my sometimes humble opinion, they probably didn't see the
heresies as apostasies. If one claims to believe that Jesus is the way,
the truth, the light, and nobody gets to the Father or paradise or heaven
without first believing in Jesus, then they are not apostate. When
somebody says, "I just don't believe anymore. I've stopped believing that
Jesus is the Christ, the Annointed One, the means chosen by the Father to
be reconciled with humanity," then that person is apostate.
Giving the strong lds bent of some here, the next question might be,
"If Mormons claim to believe in Jesus, then why are they not considered
Christians?" In my opinion, the short answer is that they believe in a
counterfeit Jesus, one not described in the bible. They believe His
Father was once a man like us, contrary to the bible. They believe He and
lucifer were / are spirit brothers, whereas the bible tells us that God,
through the ... um .... person of Jesus created everything, which of
course would include the creature lucifer. No doubt there's more, but I
haven't exhaustively studied lds-ism, so I can't come up with more off
the top of my head.
