The Anglican Catholic Church defrocked British priest Calvin Robinson after he made a gesture at the National Pro-Life Summit that critics likened to a Nazi salute.

Father Calvin Robinson was defrocked after serving five months at St. Paul's in Grand Rapids. He came to the U.S. after claiming on his website that England had grown too secular and apathetic.

The Anglican Catholic Church said Calvin Robinson was previously warned against ‘online trolling.’ Robinson called the gesture an ‘attempt at dry wit.’
