How are Storm's and Magneto abilities considered mutations? If anything, they are more like god-powers.

I am starting to get into Xmen and the whole mutation thing confuses me. Wolverine, I can understand how he is a mutant. He has actual physical mutations. However Storm and Magneto can manipulate very large scale things with their minds. How can a genetic mutation allow someone to do that?

A mutant is any person who gets their powers from birth through a mutant X-Gene. 

A God, like Thor or Zeus etc, are beings from another dimension who are immensely powerful. Many times a mutant could be more powerful than a god. That doesn't make them a god. 

 Other powerful people, like Spiderman who got bitten by a radioactive spider, or the Hulk who got shot up with gamma radiation, are not necessarily caused by mutations of the X-gene so they're not considered mutants.
