A woman may only be sealed to one man.
A man can have multiple sealed wives.Men. If a husband and wife have been sealed and the wife dies, the man may have another woman sealed to him if she is not already sealed to another man.
Nelson has gone to great lengths to talk about equality for all. He's added a new section in the same handbook to deal with this very subject:
https://www.churchofjesuschrist.org/stu ... _number220Prejudice is not consistent with the revealed word of God. Favor or disfavor with God depends on devotion to Him and His commandments, not on the color of a person’s skin or other attributes.
The Church calls on all people to abandon attitudes and actions of prejudice toward any group or individual. Members of the Church should lead out in promoting respect for all of God’s children. Members follow the Savior’s commandment to love others (see Matthew 22:35–39). They strive to be persons of goodwill toward all, rejecting prejudice of any kind. This includes prejudice based on race, ethnicity, nationality, tribe, gender, age, disability, socioeconomic status, religious belief or nonbelief, and sexual orientation.
Having different rules on temple dealings based on gender is institutional prejudice, how about starting there Mr Nelson and set the example? How about removing racism from the Book of Mormon? Once again this is an example of Nelson and the leaders of the Church not being prepared to practice what they preach.
