An LDS poster dismissed the idea as a “contrived philosophy” and “quaint.”

I’m interested in exploring the idea further, in part motivated by the following article that seeks to define “the Church”—
Seattle Pastor Offers Clarity to 'Church'| Christianpost.com

Is there anything wrong with Pastor Mark Driscoll's definition? How would LDS prefer to see it defined?

Church is nothing more than a organized body of Christ.
