LeBell,
as far as you know, are all faiths based on a pyramid heirarchy power structure (eg Pope, Bishops, Cardinals, Preists all the way down to the 'congregation' at the bottom) with instructions and proclamations flowing downstream only.

Or do any of these denominations which Antagony lists have a truly democratic 'everyone has an equal voice' power structure? I always see Amish depicted on the television and in films all working as one, building the young couple a house. Is Amish a denomination?
