The catholic church uses thousands of pages of additional made-up stuff that other sects don't believe in, from ex-cathedra edicts to the canonisation of saints, and the other Christian faiths don't hold those as "inspired by god". If that's the primary difference, then the LDS faith is at the same level as Catholicism, not Islam.
I think the part with the saints is a fair point. Things like the catechism I see more as formalization of how to interpret the Bible. However, I agree with you it's probably closer to that than Islam but my primary point was that it's not much like Scientology.
