1 The dossier of official documents relating to the “Johnson case” will be included as part of the volume When the Magisterium Intervenes …, edited by Gaillardetz, Richard, to be published in 2012 (Liturgical Press)Google Scholar. At the moment, the documents cited above are scattered about online: the Committee on Doctrine's original “Statement” and the October 2011 “Response” on the USCCB website (http://www.usccb.org/about/doctrine/publications); Johnson, 's lengthy June 2011 response “To Speak Rightly of the Living God: Observations …” (1 June 2011) on both the National Catholic Reporter site (http://ncronline.org/news/faith-parish/johnson-letter-us-bishops-doctrine-committee)Google Scholar and the Commonweal Magazine blog site (http://www.commonwealmagazine.org/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/06/EJohnson.response.CommDoct.pdf); and Johnson's latest response on the Catholic News Service blog (http://cnsblog.wordpress.com/2011/10/28/response-fromsister-elizabeth-johnson-to-us-bishops-committee-on-doctrines-latest-statement/). The essays that make up the present roundtable were completed before the Committee's October 2011 “Response” was released. Before we went to press, though, Richard Gaillardetz and Robert Masson had the opportunity to update their essays.
