Reform Mormonism: www.reformmormonism.org

"On the other hand, Reform Mormons do not believe that the proper role of a church in their lives should be one of governance. They tend to feel that the appropriate role of a church is to support the individual, not to govern it. This is in complete harmony with the Reform Mormon’s views on individual progression and cosmology. So, there is no organizational chart of those in “authority” over a Reform Mormon, because no one is in authority over them, and never will be."

6. We believe that every individual, by divine birthright, holds complete authority to act in the name, and with the power of, God, and that this power is shared equally among all.

Wow! All this time I thought some of the talent from the Bible stories dropped in like on Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure and gave the authority to Joseph. Things are starting to make more sense now....
