Exactly. To Mormons, we all do come from the same heavenly parents. Mormons believe that we are all spiritual siblings, in a very literal sense.

I understand step siblings, but calling everybody bother or sister is not a sign of respect it’s stupid!!! I teach my kids manners like addressing someone as Mr., Mrs., or Ms. You don’t meet someone and call them your brother if they are not.
