Greta Thunberg is Christ's successor, Church of Sweden proclaims..
American Thinker ^ | 10/01/2019 | Monica Showalter

If there's anything out there that explains why the Church of Sweden boasts the lowest church attendence in all Europe, against some tough continental competition, it's because of claptrap like this, as the Washington Examiner reports:

The Church of Sweden declared teen star climate activist Greta Thunberg to be an appointed successor to Jesus Christ in a 2018 tweet that resurfaced in the wake of her speech before the United Nations.

"Announcement! Jesus of Nazareth has now appointed one of his successors, Greta Thunberg," the tweet said on Dec. 1, 2018. The account, operated by the Limhamns Church, had previously tweeted several sentiments of climate activism.

Here's the beyond-stupid tweet, dated Dec. 1, 2018:

 

 

🔔Lucka 1❄️
Kungörelse! Jesus från Nasaret har nu utsett en av sina efterträdare, nämligen Greta Thunberg.🌟 — Limhamns kyrka (@Limhamnskyrka) December 1, 2018

 

Translation via Microsoft Translate:

Door Number One! (with an approppriate snowflake icon)

Announcement! Jesus of Nazareth has now appointed one of his successors, Greta Thunberg.

So not only has global warming become religion, with young Greta as its god, it's kind of sidelined Christ even in Christian religions. Since this has been going on awhile, it might just explain why most Swedes have become global warming skeptics, too, as I noted here. If Greta is the religion, and religion is already a loser, maybe there's something off about global warming, too. If not that, well, there's science, which again and again shows that man-caused global warming is a fraud.

The Swedish Church, though, is not alone.

 

Who should we have now but Catholic Maryknolls. Greta's not Christ successor, she's more like Virgin Mary.

Sweden - Dead Country Walking.

The Left decided a long time ago the best way to advance their agenda was to infiltrate the Churches, and it’s working.

She really needs a boyfriend. Getting laid might mellow her out some.

In her country, in about 5 more years, she'll have seven "boyfriends" and be wearing a burka.

Jesus Christ had the good sense to wait until he was 33 years old before he tried to tell other people how to run their lives...

Oops, I should have said “30 years old”. 33 years old was the end of his ministry, of course.

I am fed up with the attempt to portray a political personage - of either side - as some sort of Messiah. Blasphemy is blasphemy.

Oh sh!t that means 17 more years of incessant whining from someone not smart enough to know she is being manipulated.

Oddly enough just like most democrats.

The whining and manipulation. And yes it is blasphemy.
