Summary

D&C 101 was in the 1835 and 1844 versions of the D&C... and then was removed. You can't find it referenced on LDS.org, so it's almost as if it was *gasp* removed entirely so that it wouldn't conflict so drastically with modern day D&C 132. Here's what it says:

You can get married to a non-believer, you'll just be marked as "weak". When you get married it should be public and done according to local laws. Your officiant needs to wing it, no writing a ceremony beforehand! Pledge to be monogamous to your hetero spouse. Monogamy is the only option, heterosexuality is the only sexuality, public is the only type of ceremony to be done.

0:43.4	Yeah, we didn't get enough of it so far, have we?
0:46.8	No, I think that having two solid episodes with about three and a half hours worth of content just on polygamy,
0:55.3	that is not enough.
0:56.2	We need more. No, of course not.
0:57.8	I think, like, really, I think it's a good idea to sit back and decompress a little bit
1:02.0	and talk about the comment section that we've had from the first polygamy episode so far.

1:30.8	I'm referring to the D&C 101 from the 1835 edition, which has, wait for it, been removed.
1:39.0	So you won't find it in the, if you just go to your local ward and you pick up a, um, a DNC and you're like,
1:45.7	hey, here it is. You, you won't see this. So we're going to read it because it is the revelation
1:49.7	on monogamy question mark, because I haven't really read it. But pretty sure it's the revelation
