Bishop Tobin is, as many of you know, one of the FrancisTribe, pretty much at the forefront of the adulterers-and-homo agenda.
This makes him, both to me and to every reader of mine with a robust common sense, suspect of having some skeleton in the closet. Say, a mistress, or a male lover, or paedo tendencies, or financial malfeasance.
In today's church, if you can be blackmailed you can be pretty sure the gay Mafia will knock on your door and demand compliance and complicitousness with their agenda, or else.
It is, therefore, not entirely surprising to this old correspondent that a tired Bishop Tobin, very late in the night, inadvertently tweeted urbi et orbi something meant as a private message, containing the words nighty-night, baby. I love you.
Ni .
WHAT?
The bishop promptly deleted the tweet, and the diocese explained that the tweet was meant for . his sister.
Now, it can be that baby is one of those inside jokes running inside a family. However, if this were the case the bishop would be able to show a ton of such other PMs, with an abundance of babys and I love yous, to his sister just to put every rumour to rest. This would most certainly be the case, as two people engaging in PMs in the middle of the night obviously PM a lot.
Also, a public tweet of the bishop's sister, again confirming urbi et orbi that baby is the affectionate nickname with which she has been jokingly called since, say, around 1957, would not be amiss. Alas, as I write this I have seen neither.
Now, as Bishop Tobin is for the reasons described above a prime suspect for illicit and possibly homosexual relationships, it seems pretty reasonable to me to ask that good Catholic journalists start doing some sound investigative journalism on this, until satisfied that this was really an innocent family joke.
I have, like all of you, enough of progressive bishops and their skeletons in the closet; therefore, we have every right to ask that this matter be thoroughly researched.

...his (Tobin's) Twitter page shows that he is not an active user. He last tweeted in November of last year.
Thanks! I’m sure the Good Tobin would be relieved that his photo has been removed...
There’s no shift or big change - the Church has reflected the larger society’s beliefs about homosexuality. Everyone rejected them until a few years back, not socially, but did not praise it, that’s for sure. There was no mean plan by Catholics to hurt their feelings. Going back to the 1950’s, I can recall gays in the parish and also the priesthood.
There is a shift and big change towards homos, and it accelerated rapidly with the election of Pope Francis.
Yes, it’s so apparent among cardinals and FOF’s I’m wondering if Bergoglio is one himself?
