Cowardly, Brazilian Spiritism keep alleged psychographies as "open issues"

OLAVO BILAC, ONE OF THE SEVERAL VICTIMS OF CHICO XAVIER.

Brazilian Spiritism brought a coward decision about the alleged psychographies.

As they works demonstrate a lot of problems related to personal aspects, the brazilian spiritists preferred to make a strange attitude.

They keep the alleged spiritual works as "open issues".

It means that those works don't need to be recognized as true, but refuse to be recognized as false.

It brings the worrisome and serious problem.

The alleged psychographies - or similar activities related to voicing or painting, for example - can't be available to the public reading, if considered "not true nor false".

It must to demand the urgency to a rigorous research to check authenticity or fraud in those works.

Nobody can release to anybody works that are not sure to be written by a supposed author, if there's lacks of comprovation of this authorship.

Humberto de Campos, the main and serious example of alleged psychography, had strong differences between his original style and the style shown by the alleged spiritual works attributed to him.

There's several differences. Original Humberto's style was agile, cult but accessible and informal. The alleged spirit had other style, which seems so tired, prolix and excessively solemn.

The problem not only involves Humberto. Involves all of any spirit used by alleged mediums to be credited in supposed spiritual messages.

Brazilian journalist and former Realidade magazine's reporter, Leo Gilson Ribeiro (also one of the founders of Caros Amigos magazine), said a ironic comment about the alleged psychographies:

- "O espírito sobe, o talento desce" ("The spirit rises up, the talent throws down").

An indignant Joao Dornas Filho said similar thing about Olavo Bilac, one of the supposed authors of Chico Xavier's Parnaso de Além-Túmulo (Post Grave's Parnassus):

- "Olavo Bilac, um homem que no estágio de imperfeição nunca assinou um verso imperfeito, depois de morto ditou a Chico Xavier sonetos inteirinhos abaixo dos medíocres". ("Olavo Bilac, a man that in his unperfect stage never wrote an unperfect verse, but, after death, dictated to Chico Xavier entire sonnets less than mediocre").

Officially, Brazilian Spiritism, avoiding controversy, chosen to keep to "open issue" about the alleged psychographies.

It's unresponsible and coward, but comprehensible.

Brazilian Spiritism had financial intentions, although supposes to use the money rent to the charity.

It means that this religion want not to see the alleged psychographies forbidden to publishing.

The "not true nor false" option, however, gives a disrespect to the memory of dead authors credited in those pretense works.

It's offensive anyway, whatever is avoided all of the vulgar, pornographic or mocking appeals in the texts involved in it.

The offense consists to use a dead author's name, being or not famous, to the credit of the messages written by others, being, in this case, the alleged mediums.

It's so terrible, whatever the texts were so full of nice and comfortable messages about fraternity, peace and Christianism.

A false is a false, anyway, no matter if those messages promise the Peace of the World. Being a lie, they're deplorable in the same way.
