The choice of Joseph Tobin as a mediator in the case is suggestive of what kind of resolution the Vatican may be looking for.
February 3, 2021 (LifeSiteNews) – The Vatican has tasked pro-LGBT Cardinal Joseph Tobin of Newark, New Jersey to intervene in the case of an archbishop revoking the Catholic identity of a Jesuit-run high school over its refusal to not renew the contract of a teacher in a same-sex “marriage” only to have the Vatican suspend the archbishop’s decision.
Senior Vatican officials close to both the Congregation for Catholic Education and in the Secretariat of State confirmed to The Pillar last week that Cardinal Tobin was asked in 2020 to intervene in the case and help reach a settlement.
In June 2019, Indianapolis Archbishop Charles Thompson cut ties with Brebeuf Jesuit Preparatory School after administrators refused to follow his directive not to renew the contract of a male educator in a same-sex “marriage.” The Catholic Church teaches that homosexual acts are “intrinsically disordered.” The Archdiocese’s policy is that Catholic school teachers “must convey and be supportive of all teachings of the Catholic Church.”
When the school refused to follow the policy, the Archbishop decreed that the school “can no longer use the name Catholic and will no longer be identified or recognized as a Catholic institution by the Archdiocese of Indianapolis.” The school appealed to the Vatican around June 2019. The following September, the Vatican temporally suspended the archbishop’s decision. As of this writing, the school still identifies itself as a “Catholic” school.
“It is not clear when a resolution might be reached, but curial officials say the Vatican hopes Tobin will find a resolution agreeable to both the archdiocese and the Jesuit province that runs the high school,” The Pillar reported.

frankie is an idolatrous, commie fag.
Annnnd just a touch anti catholic....
Something I don’t understand. If you have no desire to live as a Catholic, why do you want to have a job in a Catholic school? Or be a part of a Catholic Church?
This Pope makes Islam look good.
Yes, frankie is entirely anti-catholic. As a Jew, I’m much more in favor of historic catholicism than he is.
You’re probably more Catholic than he is....
How else will you destroy the church unless you are part of it????
The ‘politically correct’ political pope.
Give this new doctrine a few years and it will become catholic tradition.
Just ask the Chinese Catholics who got sold out for 2 Billion pieces of silver.
By which I mean the institution of which Frankie is the CEO. Not to be confused with any other outfit claiming the same title.
