Mormons worship god because we strongly believe in God and want to repay him with all that we can
Christians, Catholics, and Mormons all worship God in his namesake. However, Muslims and Jews also worship God, they just have different names for him.
That's not true. All Mormons do not pride themselves on this fact, so since the premise of your question is flawed, there is no way to answer it. Mormons worship the God of the Bible, the same God as everyone else, believing only different things about Him.
Members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints (Mormons) worship God our Heavenly Father. Mormons also worship Jesus Christ, the son of God to whom they look for salvation. Mormons pray to the father in the name of the son. Mormons believe that the father has given all power and authority to his son Jesus. The plan of salvation is administered through Jesus Christ. Jesus created this earth. It is he who answers our prayers. He set an example and taught us how to come unto the father. Jesus suffered and died in order to pay our debt of sin. He will be our judge. Mormons worship the father by striving to live a Christ like life. As we turn our lives to Christ, we are saved by his atoning sacrifice for sin. If we are in rebellion to God, we have no such promise.
Members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (commonly called the "Mormon" church) worship for the same reasons as any other person of faith would worship. Worship is a way to praise God to thank Him for all that He has bestowed upon mankind. Many Mormons also feel that worship allows them to connect with God on a personal level and develop a relationship with Him. Worship also allows us to fellowship with other believers and to share and receive the gospel message.

Many Christians see prayers as just a means of communication. Anytime you talk to God, you pray. Talking is worship. As far as the Mormons, that is to be more like God in their deeds-since they are mortal, worship not required to talk to them. Hope that answered your question. No, because our goal as followers of God is to become LIKE him, meaning kind, forgiving, loving, selfless, etc. We are not God, so we should not be worshiped, we are simply trying to follow His example and teachings and adapt His personality traits, not His divinity. Worshiping anything but God is sacrelige.
Mormons (members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints) have a different view of the nature of God than most other Christian groups, but still worship the same God.Mormons are non-Trinitarian, meaning that they believe that God the Father, Jesus Christ the Son, and the Holy Spirit are three individual beings, perfectly united in purpose and power but not in substance. Mormons worship the Father and the Son through the Holy Spirit. Worship hymns are sung addressed to the Father, Jesus, or both (occasionally the Holy Spirit/Holy Ghost will also be addressed, such as in the line "Praise Father, Son, and Holy Ghost" as found in the traditional hymn Praise God, from Whom all Blessings Flow). Prayers are addressed to the Father in the name of Jesus.For more information about what Mormons believe about the nature of God and who they worship, see these links:Mormon.org: GodheadMormon Newsroom: The Trinity of traditional Christianity is called the Godhead by MormonsPresident Gordon B.

Mormons refer to God as "Heavenly Father."
No. Members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (the 'Mormon' church) worship God alone. To worship Joseph Smith would be blasphemy and just as inappropriate and absurd as worshiping Moses or Isaiah or any other prophet. They do not worship their church either. Mormons do believe that God was once a man, but that He is now glorified, exalted and deified and is God, not a man.Mormons also do not believe that God lives on Kolob, two verses of Mormon scripture say that the throne of God is near toKolob. It never says He lives on Kolob.In addition, atheism is the belief that there is no god - so even if one does not worship or believe in the same god that you do, this does not mean they are atheists.
Yes, Mormons believe that Jesus is the Son of God.

Mormons are Christians. They worship God and Jesus, and are considered part of the Protestant tradition. They believe that the Hebrew Bible (Old Testament) and New Testament are sacred scripture. But they also believe their own bible, the Book of Mormon, is sacred scripture too.
