Calvin Robinson's license revoked by the Anglican Catholic Church over political actions

Calvin Robinson, a clergyman originally from England who rose to fame as the token black guy spewing ultra conservative political positions, has managed to get his license revoked. Calvin moved to Michigan, USA last year to escape persecution in the UK. The guy has no sense and I knew he would get himself into trouble. He has freely acknowledged that at the conclusion of a speech he gave at some sort of Pro-Life rally, he threw up a Sig Heil style salute, saying he was copying Elon Musk in fun. Fr. Robinson is a mess and doesn't know whether he's Anglican or Old Catholic or what but I do hope he takes his suspension as time to sort himself out. If he had the humility he could come stay with me in Ohio for a few weeks and I'd (probably can't use that salty Navy word on CF) . . . educate him.

I used to have a lot of respect for Calvin, but I increasingly found him saying things that are either questionable or not befitting of the pastoral office, so his dismissal comes as no surprise to me.

I was able to find the clip where he copies Musk’s gesture and it’s sad to me he did it in connection with saying “God bless”. That, I think, betrays a lot about what he believes, which is not good.

I pray he’s able to repent and be restored with humility.
