Tobin is one of the reasons why I turned away from the Church. Plenty of leadership in the Church do not follow the teachings of Christ: Forgiveness, tolerance and good will toward others.

I remember years ago he spoke out against LGBT community for some parade they were having. It happened to be on the same day as the anniversary mass of my father's death, one of the rare occasions I went to church. I remember sitting in the pew, looking at my sister and saying "I'm only here for Dad."

How can someone preach the Gospel and then turn around and spit out hate like that? I'm not sorry to see hime go. Good riddance.
