Is that unheard of in a Protestant church? Honest question; I don’t know.
 
Not in any of the Lutheran churches that adhere to what Luther historically believed and taught.

In other words, not in any self-respecting Protestant Church claiming apostolicity.

Probably not, but I’m giving them the benefit of the doubt here. Of course the remarks about Jesus and Joseph, if true, can hardly be justified.
 
They do not want to anger that growing segment of their population.
Besides, he was married, right? 😙

Does their Church require celibate chastity

They require no such thing. Same sex marriage is legal in the Church of Sweden.

Unlike the Church of Denmark, the Church of Sweden in principle carries on apostolic succession assuming all those pesky requirements are followed which (starting with the intention of the consecration bishops) they are not. I don’t know if the Church of Sweden claims apostolic succession or apostolicity.
 
There are plenty of legitimate criticisms of the Church of Sweden without this questionable (but possible) story.

An archbishop who can’t seem to say the Virgin Birth literally occurred and thinks Jesus and Mohammed are equals. Allows same-sex “marriage” and silent on abortion. A woman bishop in a same-sex relationship. Clergy who have issues with calling God the Lord. Clergy are NOT obliged to believe in Jesus Christ but MUST support the ordination of women. Some have been defrocked for not supporting the ordination of women.

Your second paragraph could apply to some other Protestant churches too, sadly.

Definitely and many have left them. They join other churches because they know those things are problematic. Others see no point in a godless faith and just leave Christianity completely.
But many who are horrified remain for various personal reasons. They need our prayers.

Yes they do need prayer! There are still people remaining in those churches even though they know their church has gone off the rails. I pray they find the strength to get out.
 
He was a polygamist. And one of his wives was 9 years old when the marriage was consumated. So that makes him a _____________

Idk. What are the forum rules here again? lol.
 
LifeSite is always bashed because they don’t go along with the secular ideology.
 
No, they get bashed because they don’t get their news stories and sources. I know I’ve seen sites that “don’t go along with secular ideology” but don’t have white nationalist websites picking up their stories.
 
Is there proof that their report on the church of Sweden is false?

Roman Catholic theologians at Roman Catholic colleges say similar things.
Holy Cross Theology Professor Liew Says Jesus Was a ‘Drag King’ with ‘Queer Desires’

Roman Catholic Fr. Philip Boroughs, SJ, president of the College of the Holy Cross, has stated publicly that Professor Liew “is a man of deep faith".

And if true, this is foul blasphemy. But why bring this up? It’s hardly news that this college has long since ceased to be a “Catholic” college in any meaningful sense.

Interestingly it is allowed in the Church of Denmark to have a sacramental understanding of the priesthood, and it is legal (if not considered legitimate) to not shake hands with female priests at ordinations.
 
So in the Church of Denmark there is an all-male scaramental priest faction and another one that supports female ordination?
