I hate to stick up for the sanctity of the Church Of England, but Calvin Robinson was *not* an “Anglican priest” - he was a member of the Anglican Catholic Church, the latest in a long line of ‘churches’ that are something along the lines of Trump University. He’s a priest in the way same way someone who gets a wedding license to officiate their friend’s wedding is a priest.

Meh, like many other better known Anglican denominations, the Anglican Catholic Church is in full communion with some other Anglican churches but not with the Anglican Communion. It's Protestantism, schisms happen. ;-) It's not like the Anglican Communion claims to be the one true Church. The church-polity stakes are a lot lower than they are in, say, Roman Catholicism, and only diehard religion nerds like me care about who's in full communion with whom.

They do love a schism, those Protestants…
There's a schism within my family as to whether the c in schism is pronounced or not.
