I am willing to wager such account do exist, but they are not advertised by the church and certainly not taught about in Sunday School. - Dragon

Most certainly correct!
Quote:

They commit a sin only when they fornicate or commit adultery.

Correct, from my research. The problem is that they are not permitted to marry or have sex inside marriage. So they can feel and think all they want but do something about it and they are punished. This also entirely neglects the thoughts of the heart.
Quote:

The Bishops' manual states that Bishops should follow the Spirit in their administration and council, particularly when a doctrine is unclear in a particular situation. Also, there is a strong Mormon Culture which is resistant to change and Bishops have varying degrees of Spiritual connection, just like the rest of the church.

Yep, fully agree.
Quote:

1. Official Church Doctrine
2. Church Policies and Procedures
3. Mormon Cultural Beliefs

I might add:
4. True Beliefs inspired by the spirit which are not supported by any of the above 1-3 points. (But I can understand that you didn't include this because you said, "the three levels of church beliefs:" and this is not a level of Church belief or it would fall under the above 1-3.

On that note, The revealed Doctrine of heavenly mother is a perfect example for this discussion. Can anyone tell us the details of this revelation including 1)Who revealed it, 2)How it was revealed to the world and 3)The membership's initial response?

Love and peace,
Amonhi
