One of the highlights of this issue is the interview our collaborator and editor Orson Peter Carrara did with the confrere Eliseu Mota Junior, well-known lecturer all over the country and author of many book in the Spiritist market, as the book Abortion in the light of Spiritism, in which he says, on the interview, had written as a homage to his wife. In the talk with the editor Orson Carrara, Eliseu discussed many topics and said that the Spiritist Centers need to update as to the methods used to spread the Spiritism.

The poll published on June 25, 2008, by the magazine IstoÉ, caused uproar, as it conveyed to the Brazilian reader an awful interpretation of what the Spiritist youngsters think. According to this poll, a large part of these people who say they are Spiritist is for death penalty and abortion, in a stark contrast with the Spiritist Doctrine. We are going to have this poll under scrutiny in this issue.

In 1993 was created in Oslo, capital of Norway, the GEEAK, group of Spiritist studies whose history is told by our collaborator Claudia Werdine, Correspondent of the magazine in Europe, in the second story of her series about the European Spiritist movement.
