The Anglican Catholic Church has removed a Grand Rapids priest for making an alleged Nazi salute.

Calvin Robinson, priest-in-charge at St. Paul’s Anglican Catholic Church, was defrocked Thursday, Jan. 29, after church leadership learned he’d made the controversial salute to a crowd at the National Pro-Life Summit on Jan. 25 in Washington, D.C.

    Huh? A priest did a nazi solute and was exiled for it. Refusing to give them credit for doing the right thing just makes you look bad. This is Lemmy, everyone here knows how bad the church can be.

      If you’re not aware, there are plenty of Catholic clergies who are known to be ultra conservative and Trump supporters. There are rumours around that they dislike Pope Francis and are planning to usurp him if given the chance. If it is so happens that the current leader is also ultraconservative, then they will turn a blind eye to that priest in the article.
