The is great. For once, something good. The Charismatics were/are basically not even Catholic. One of my aunts was very involved with one of these "charismatic" Catholic churches in the L.A. area about 15 years ago. It was a dying movement across the USA even then, but she was involved with it. That is until she got two of her children and another sister to come to their services. They didn't call it Mass, but instead "The Eucharist", and also "Praise and Worship" service. Waving arms, jumping around, crying, and phony "speaking in tongues". Her sister, and one of her daughters finally convinced her that the place wasn't even really Catholic.....so she left. Now she goes to the Novus Ordo "occasionally"
I am glad the Charismatics are just about extinct in the USA, we never hear about them ever. There were a lot of charismatic "monastic communities" founded about 5 years after Vatican II, promoted a lot by "cardinal" Suenens of Belgium, one of the most non-Catholic liberal Cardinals' there was. This groups is just one of many that are now gone.
There was one in the USA, notorious, which was supressed just afew years ago. I think it was called the "Community of the Lamb", founded by a former cloistered nun named "Mother Nadine Brown". Members of her group treated her like she was a prophet. But that was disbanded too.
