Does the "Charismatic Renewal" include strange things?

Yes, it does.

But we have met an inordinately high number of cradle Catholics who came to the Traditional Latin Mass after being "Charismatics".

1/4
It's easy for us to forget the complete upheaval of the 1960s and 1970s. Beliefs and practice simply disappeared in many places. And, for many people, the new "Charismatic Renewal" was a refuge they found for some semblance of Christianity and family life.

2/4
We see this in the life story of Judge Barrett's father, a permanent Deacon: one can simply read his testimony here and see that it happened exactly like this. But his seven children are a sign that his commitment to Catholic morals never failed.

So, let us be friendly and happy with our "Charismatic" coreligionists. They're doing their best, as they are able to see it, in this grave crisis of the Church, and some of them may end up in our local TLM.

4/4
P.S.
It's curious to see that Justice Scalia was the father of a priest, and Judge Barrett is the daughter of a deacon...

It’s very sad to see how Francis just “broke” some people. They just needed a push to be sucked into a kind of mental black hole…

Wish they’d paid more attention to our 2014 post, “Ten tips on how to survive a calamitous Pope and remain Catholic.” rorate-caeli.blogspot.com/2014/11/ten-ti…
(1) Keep calm.

(2) Read good books on the history of the Church and the history of the papacy.

(3) Do not give in to apocalyptic warnings.

(4) Do not stay silent, nor look away.

(5) Do not generalize.
(6) Do not help initiatives for the greater glory of the calamitous pontiff.

(7) Do not follow instructions of the Pope in that which deviates from treasure of the Church.

(8) Do not financially support collaborationist dioceses.

(9) Do not support any schism.

(10) Pray.

Unfortunately, not only do they know well @taylorrmarshall in the Vatican -- we are free to affirm for sure, from the most reliable sources, that the whole thought process that led to Traditionis Custodes started with Marshall's pachamama grift stunt.
Francis was not particularly fond of Traditionalists (though he was of the SSPX), but his instinct was to keep a mostly aloof attitude regarding us. Just months before the Amazon Synod, he approved additional optional prefaces and saints' days for the 1962 Missal.
His attitude hardened when he felt personally humiliated by the stunt made up by Taylor Marshall. (This is not to minimize the ridiculousness of the Manaus, Brazil, tourist souvenir dolls placed in sanctuaries in Rome as if they were representations of pachamama.)

"If we consider the end of the divine institution of marriage, we shall see very clearly that God intended it to be a most fruitful source of individual benefit and of public welfare."

We have a grave obligation to restore the Traditional Latin Mass as the proper and normative rite of the Church of Rome, the lex orandi definitively codified by St Pius V and received intact by all his successors until the tempestuous twentieth century. rorate-caeli.blogspot.com/2022/10/new-bo…
The Novus Ordo Missae constitutes a rupture with fundamental elements of all liturgies of apostolic
derivation, and that, as a consequence, it violates the Church’s solemn obligation to receive, cherish,
guard, and pass on the fruits of liturgical development.
Since this development is, in fact, a major way in
which the Holy Spirit, as Christ promised,leads the Church “into fullness of truth”over the ages, such
a “sin against the Holy Spirit”cannot fail to have enormous negative consequences, as indeed
the past 5 decades have verified.

“The whole series of her [Russia’s] history, from the earliest period to the present day, has been one long-continued course of fraud and perfidy, of stealthy encroachment, or open and unblushing violence.”

Lord Lyndhurst
Speech at the House of Lords, June 19, 1854
He adds, recalling suppression and forced conversion of Polish, Ruthenian/Ukrainian Greek Catholics: “She ostentatiously proclaimed herself Protector of Greek Church…, fomented religious dissensions among that people, and, under pretence of putting an end to disorders…
“… which she bad herself created, sent a large military force into the country, and gradually stripped it of some of its fairest possessions.”
