That may be true for some, but I think it may be more accurate to error in the generalization that LDS leaders teach a form of henotheism - the belief in many gods but the worship of only one. (I know a lot of people here will want to cite the Journal of Discourses and such to show that LDS theology teaches that the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit are separate deities, but so many of my friends who are members believe them to be one, and worship them as one).
