DISINFO: Swedish Church has declared Greta Thunberg the successor of Christ
SUMMARY
Some high-level clergy of the Church of Sweden has declared Greta Thunberg a prophet and a successor of Christ. In late 2019, Arch-Bishop Antje Jackalén declared that she considered Greta Thunberg a female prophet and able to foretell the future, just as the prophets of the Old Testament.
RESPONSE
A false statement. The Church of Sweden issued a formal statement in October 2019:
No, Church of Sweden has not proclaimed Greta Thunberg as one of Jesus Christ's successors.
