If the king married unequally, Victoria didn't' either, and most likely neither will Madeleine or Carl Philip so to say Birgitta would make the best choice because she did doesn't hold water. And as far as primogeniture, Margaretha, along with her sisters were never apart of succession, and according to the current succession the sisters are still excluded so if they did decide to chose someone they have no reason to bound by the idea of birth order. If Sweden though that keeping their royal family that they would choose someone to take over wouldn't they want to choose the one that has been the most active in terms of representation? Christina does the most, she helped with the previous king, and still does with the current king. But this is all hypothetical, and isn't something that would realistically happen.

I would guess that all three of princess Birgitta's children are Catholics (as they all have Maria among their names and their father being a Catholic), and as the Swedish succession order says in 4§ ( https://lagen.nu/1810:0926 ) that a person who doesn't belong to the "pure Evangelical faith" and have not been brought up in that faith, are excluded from the succession, which should make the Hohenzollern children non-eligible.

Does the catholic rule apply to the Swedish royal family as well? You know if you marry a catholic you lose your place in the line of succession?

There is a provision that states, the royal family shall belong to the "pure evangelical faith", i.e., the (Evangelical-Lutheran) Church of Sweden. It says nothing about limiting marriage to a member of a different faith.

Catholics are barred from inheriting the Throne but, unlike Britain, they are not the only ones. The Swedish Act of Succession 1810 states that the Monarch and members of the Royal Family must belong to Lutheran (evangelical) faith.
Other limitations:
- Children of the Monarchmust be brought up in Sweden
- Members of the Royal Family cannot marry without the Monarch's consent
- The heir to the throne cannot travel abroad without the Monarch's permission

The heir is also prevented from becoming the head of state in another country, either by election or marriage, without the consent of the monarch and the government, by forfeit of all rights of succession for themselves and their heirs.

many swedes think its strange that the royal family must be lutherans as the Swedish church isnt what you would call a lutheran church nowdays. Its more of a socialdemocratic church

This is from the Act of Succession (via google translate)
the King shall always profess the pure evangelical doctrine, such as that in the unaltered Augsburg Confession, and the Uppsala Meeting decision of the year 1593, adopted and explained, thus princes and princesses of the Royal. House shall be brought in the same faith and within the realm. Those of the Royal Family not professing this faith, from all rights of succession is excluded. Act (1979:935).
I take that to mean the spouses of those in the line of succession can profess any religion as they never had a right to the throne in the first place.

No, there is nothing preventing a member of the Swedish royal family to marry a Catholic, in fact queen Désirée remained a Catholic all her life and Oscar I married Joséphine who kept her Catholic faith and brought a Catholic priest with her to Sweden, and her children were brought up in the Lutheran faith.

Yes, both Karl XIV Johan and Oscar I had to convert to Lutheranism when Karl Johan became heir to the Swedish throne.

 Soon to be 8 and I think we can expect at least one more little one, perhaps 3-4 more in the coming years. Never mind the line of succession, grandma and grandpa have a lot of toy shopping to do at Christmas these days.

There were some criticism when Madeleines children got royal rank and titles from the king. But I think it's very logical. He has first hand knowledge of the difficulties that a royal family can have if and when the line of succession is very short. With the development we're seeing - all the kings three children will soon be parents - the line of succession is secure. And I honestly think that he considers that the best part of his legacy.

Yes, but as you know the #5 won't have a last name, just like his/her cousins. He/she will just be prince/princess NN.
I also think that Madeleine will have more children, and it's very likely that Carl Philip will add to the succession order more than once. So my guess is that there will be at least 10 people in this line within the next few years.
