“charismatic Catholicism”, has passed about 20 years ago.
Sounds loke their approach to mass is similar to their approach to their movies, very noisy and theatrical.
I have mixed feelings about the “charismatic movement,” which for better or for worse did not pass away but is still very much with us, especially in areas where Protestant Pentecostalism is strong, such as the South (where I live). Latin Americans responded to Liberation Theology by leaving the Church in droves, and most of them went to the Prostant Pentecostals that were scattered throughout Lat Am, which is why there are so many Hispanics in the movement.
The Catholic Charismatic movement got them back to the Church, but I often find charismatics - whether Hispanic or non-Hispanic - a very disturbing group. They are anti-intellectual, given to emotional experiences which they interpret as divine graces of some sort, and seem to set up as sort of cults within the Church. We have some (non-Hispanic) charismatics here who spend all their time having “healings” at healing masses, looking for different people to lay hands on them, and basically seeking sensations. Some of them are, quite frankly, wacky.
Yet at the same time, there are some who do this but are very loyal to the Pope, aren’t interested in doctrine or learning themselves but don’t reject it, and do not wave their hands around at Mass waiting to be “slain in the Spirit.”
So my opinion is very mixed.
Incidentally, I think TLM would go over just fine with many Hispanics, although the charismatically oriented ones would continue to have their extra-liturgical prayer services. I think the latter are fine and even something we need more of - as long as they’re supervised and kept orthodox by somebody who knows enough to do so.
I don’t know what’s worse, the uptight austere Catholicism brought here by the Paddy Whackers, or the foot stomping hillbilly Catholicism of the Central Americans.
