Jehovah\'s Witnesses, as different as they are, still fit as Christians in that they still believe Christians to be Christ. A better comparison might be, imagine that there was a Christian sect that accepted the Koran, including its bits about Mohammed being a prophet and Jesus being a prophet rather than the Christ- and that this sect nonetheless referred to itself as Christians. Would mainstream christianity accept them then?

Would other christian denomenations accept \\\'\\\'them\\\'\\\' as Christian? No? Well, that\\\'s why Messianic Judiasm and Jews for Jesus are considered Christian, not Jewish. There is a dividing line between the two set by the Rabbis and the Romans centuries ago, and that line is if you think his Proper True Name is Yeshua Ben Yosef or Jesus Christ.
