You, as a lawyer, find the letter to the bishop to be reprehensible. I understand your explanation of why it's so terrible, though as a non-lawyer, frankly, it doesn't strike me in the same way.

Bingo.

As a non-lawyer myself, it strikes me as a major victory for laity against a culumnious attack-dog priest who is protecting the status quo, at the behest of an institution obsessed with maintqaining the status quo, regardless of the method employed.

Fr. Johanson was full of crap, and willfully undermining the credibility of Rose. I'm glad Rose was successful in silencing one of the attack dogs trying to cover up the filth in the Church's seminaries.

Say you are a member of a medical association. That association takes a strong stance against homosexuality, and makes various statements on the subject. It plans to hold a seminar on the subject.

Various homosexuals feel defamed. They write to your group asking you to stop. Your group refuses. Next, they write to the state medical board protesting your conference, and threatening to hold them responsible for the actions if they continue to issue continuing education credits for the conference.

The medical board cancels your association’s continuing education credits.

Do you consider this fair? Do you consider it right? If so, please explain the difference.
