Changes have been fast and
radical these days.
Would they be work of
chance?
This is the subject of this
week’s editorial, entitled
“Transformations of our
time aren’t fruit of chance”.
One of the highlights in
this issue is the interview
conceded by the confrere
Aparecido Augusto Carvalho,
from Ilha Solteira (São
Paulo state), to our
collaborator and editor
Orson Peter Carrara, in
which the interviewee talks
about the Spiritist Movement
in the region of Urubupungá
and about the active
interchange that has been
kept between various
Spiritist institutions
located on the border
between the states of São
Paulo and Mato Grosso do Sul.
It’s an example that should
be copied and followed by
Spiritist institutions.
Another highlight this week
is the special report
entitled “The strange
moral of Jesus”, by Leda
Maria Flaborea, from São
Paulo (São Paulo state), who
analyzes the meaning of
certain phrases and words
attributed to Jesus, which
clearly distune from the
thoughts and actions that
feature the passage of the
Master through the planet.
The II British Congress on
Medicine and Spirituality
took place on 7th
and 8th November
in London under the guidance
of the Medical Spiritist
International Association
and of the British Union of
Spiritist Societies, as
shows the report that
integrates this edition,
which is also a highlight.
