Why is it that bishops tolerate heretical priests for decades but very quickly punish faithful priests?
It must be because they are in sympathy with the heretics and are infuriated by faithful priests

BREAKING: Bishop Callahan CANCELS Fr. Altman

Bishop William J. Callahan, the bishop of La Crosse, Wisconsin, today issued a decree removing Fr. James Altman as pastor of St. James the Less and suspending his faculties as a priest. Fr. Altman has suspected for some time that his removal was forthcoming, but plans to fight the order. Fr. Altman cares for his 90-year-old parents at the parish rectory of St. James the Less. It remains to be seen if Bishop Callahan will forcefully remove them from the rectory.
TAKE ACTION: Contact Bishop Callahan at 608-788-7700 or at dbrannon@diolc.org and let him know how you feel about him removing Fr. Altman from ministry.
