I guess "heresy" is in the eye of the beholder.
Some of these are schisms, rather than heresies. Should I pop some popcorn? ;-)
No matter who you are, you're a heretic to somebody.
Heresy support group, anyone? "My name is Larry, and I'm a heretic." "Hi, Larry!!!"

You could have just saved space and said that anyone who is not Catholic is a heretic.
May I be the first to say, "Phhooooooopp!"?
Thank you, I thought I would be.
What kind of idiot can't tell the difference between a Calvinist and a mormon?
The word "heretic" means "rebel". A heretic is a rebel against an orthodox establishment he belongs to.
and
To commit heresy, one must refuse to be corrected. A person who is ready to be corrected or who is unaware that what he has been saying is against Church teaching is not a heretic.
This seems to imply (and I agree) that one can believe a heresy sincerely and yet not be a heretic. Intentional rebellion is a necessary part
pPing me, too, as you post, please
The author is way off. "The Charismatic Revewal" is not, per se, a heresy (unless the sedevacantists are right). Prominent charismatics include Fr. Montelessori, the papal homilist of Popes Benedict XVI and John Paul II, and by his own deliberate association and commendation, Pope John Paul II, himself.
This is not to say that there aren't heretical strains of the Charismatic Renewal: "the renewal in the Spirit" has often been called, "baptism in the Spirit," a term properly applied to confirmation, but used in sort of a "born again"/Pentecostalist manner. And although its description of a "new spirit of Pentecost" is a deliberate reference to Vatican II, many charismatics have falsely inferred that it refers to a seperate event which overturns Catholic tradition, rather than a popularization of seeking the very same gifts which the saints have received throughout history (spiritual ecstasy, miraculous healings, prophecy, etc.).
Despite the popularity of these false notions, particularly in the early phases of the Charismatic Renewal, the Renewal's leaders have joyfully accepted any and all correction given them by church leaders, and actively sought to purge these false notions from their midst. At present, the Franciscan University of Steubenville (Ohio) is central to the American renewal, and is a veritable factory of passionately orthodox priests and young church community leaders.
