Aids on discussion again


 

In a 6-day visit to Africa, the continent with the largest number of people infected with Aids in the world, the Pope Benedict XVI, as expected, reinforced the Church’s position against the use of preservatives. Aids, said the Pope, “cannot be defeated with the distribution of preservatives”. This is not the first time that the sexual abstinence proposal appears on the declarations of the Church leadership, as shown in this week editorial entitled “Sexual abstinence and Aids”.

This Wednesday 8th, the confrere Sebastião Paiva, also tenderly known as “Seo Paiva”, will turn 100 years old of a prosperous existence. He has been a shelter to others in the city of Bauru, São Paulo, and as a Spiritist since his youth, he has practiced with excellence during his life the maxim coined by Allan Kardec: “Outside the Charity there is no salvation”. In the interview conceded to the Editor Wellington Balbo, which is the main headline in this edition, the great Charity missioner ask us to remember that the physical existence is ephemeral and hence we need to live without exaggerations or much attachment to the matter, and always working for our neighbors.

Another headline this week is the special article entitled “The magnetic healing and its limitations”, which analyses the four main reasons that limit the healing fluidic action and clarifies why the magnetic healing does not always reach the same outcome for similar cases.

The USI, Unione Spiritica Italiana, with the collaboration of many Italian groups, has promoted the Seminar “Reincarnation and Christianism” last Sunday 29th March, which was presented by the confrere Humberto Werdine, from Vienna, as shown in the report by Claudia Werdine, another headline in this edition.

A few days ago, one of our readers got fascinated with the search tool available on this website. Since many readers are not familiarized with the subject, some explanations might be helpful. On the top of the homepage (initial page), there is a typical Internet tool labeled “Buscar”. Right below it, there are two options: “Web” and “Busca no site”. After selecting the second option, just fill out the blank field with the word wanted. Let’s say we want to find out about “suicide”. Then the site will indicate the pages where the word entered is cited, regardless if it is in the week editions, the magazine reports, the newspaper O Imortal  or in the Estudos Espíritas.
