Cap. 3

METHOD MIKE BONGIORNO

Of all the things secure the most certain is doubt . It is an aphorism of Bertolt Brecht, which raises the ethical question of the rank of virtue. Less virtuous is that the doubt - nell'accezione debased of "indecision" - is the chapter " Conclusions " a technical report, which is the instrument by which a consultant will formally respond to a question . To the question raised, a report has three answers possibili: sì; no; oppure “allo stato dell’arte non è dato sapere”. È una precisazione lapalissiana, ma per la psicologa “giornalista” le cose non stanno così. O meglio, non stanno così da quando le è stato chiesto se la pratica del Reiki può essere nociva per un minore affetto da disturbi psichici. A questo punto ha fatto suo il metodo “Mike Bongiorno”, introducendo una nuova modalità di risposta: busta numero uno, numero due o numero tre?

Per comprendere questo innovativo principio, diamo uno sguardo alla perizia richiesta da un genitore in una causa di separazione, e firmata:

It consists of 17 pages, and here we start well: many pages suggest a thorough analysis, which is a solid basis to respond diligently argument. With Dr. Tinelli, however, surprises are frequent, and also this work will give us a laugh.

The first page is dedicated to ' Introduction, consists of two lists: a list of clinical reports on the pathology of the child, and the list of certified Reiki level reached by the spouse follower of this discipline. Obviously, data are supplied by the person who commissioned the report and therefore already knows. Even the judge a list of doctors who visited the child and the list of statements by the parent are superfluous information: If a child with mental disorders Reiki is harmful, no matter what level the parent has met or psychiatrist who has made diagnosis. It is harmful and that's it.

The second page is entitled "Personal Information" , where it is reported, how not his long and imaginative curriculum. Apart from the fact that it is false, it is not clear which may have relevance with the task of formulating an opinion on the possible harmful effects of Reiki being " Entered the Order of Journalists " . Or be the " editor of the journal Labyris " . You go to the useless bad luck with the citation of the article (never published) " mass suicide" has a title that frankly jinx. It should however be appreciated that the modesty of the claim retains its " teaching " in a course for hairdressing a private school. Following is Chapter

" analysis methodology " this is a necessary element. The title is misused, however: it does not describe any methodology, it is only a list of sources used for the subsequent description of Reiki. The list consists of 19 items that they take two more pages. Do not miss the concerns not on this list. Nine items are links to Internet sites, which allowed an easy "copy-paste". But only 3 of these 9 links are actually used, the other six are there but they do not understand why. On the other hand, in the next chapter if they meet 4, which do not appear in this sort of literature disguised as Methodology. They are then listed in a book and two articles from magazines. Even these last two are not used in the study. Same fate for the two cards drawn from Dossier Alternative Religious Movements.

remain finally:

• a mysterious " REIKI holistic " , which are not references and it is unclear whether a treaty, the post of a forum or a rock band ;


• references to two letters sent by the Order of Psychologists Tinelli, it is difficult capirne l’utilità (se non in senso olistico);


• infine l’item più bizzarro, prudentemente collocato per ultimo: “ Volantini pubblicitari del Sentiero Sacro ” .

Con i depliant pubblicitari in mano, possiamo tranquillamente saltare le 12 pagine del capitolo che descrive il Reiki. Sono 12 pagine di copia-incolla da pagine web, con informazioni dall’utilità piuttosto precaria: la “ Storia ” del movimento, “ I Maestri ” fondatori, la “ Simbologia ” del Reiki. Ancora una volta, argomenti del tutto ininfluenti per stabilire se il Reiki sia nocivo o meno.

Colpo di scena: l’analisi è conclusa. Chiamata a fare una relazione tecnica, la criminologa docente per parrucchiere non scrive nulla che sia frutto della sua supposta competenza, ma si limita a riportare brani del tutto superflui trovati in Internet o su alcuni volantini pubblicitari.

Siamo quindi alle “ Conclusioni ” , l’ultimo brevissimo capitolo (una pagina). Having to determine whether Reiki can be harmful to a child suffering from mental disorders, the weighted response " Expert and Technical Advisor at the Courts " part of this consideration (emphasis in original):

" the face of available data, however, we can say that you can make three hypotheses about the effectiveness and significance of this technique-healing ritual:


• skeptical hypothesis ( in short: the method has no effect objective)


• benign hypothesis (in short: if there are effects, it is due to unknown forces)


• Hypothesis worried (in short: if there are effects, it is not known depend on what) "

not know! The terminology used is hilarious (the stunning " Hypothesis worried " ), but omitting the extravagance of the terms that ridicules expertise, Dr. Tinelli tells us that he does not know - damn Japs - where is "devilish" is effective or not. So, not knowing which way to turn, provides an advantageous "Three responses to the price of one." This is a really worried about Reiki in a report to be used in a courtroom, the expert " satanic sects " claims to be a journalist and has a humorous sketch that stands out the 'dialectic of incompetence and inadequacy. In court has seen it all, but pay a surveyor to make an educated guess "concerned" must have been a bitter pill.

hours to prepare a descent into the Maelstrom.

Based on these three cases, the journalist Graphology and family mediator may make its final decision. This is a Grand Final, because things did not go well here either. Shipwrecked in a vortex coordinate and subordinate fails to write the exact opposite of what he wants to express. Seeing is believing:

To figure it out, let's unravel the intricate tangle of languages. The key phrases are:

1. subjected to similar treatment


2. little ***


3. not have any good


4. may even suffer negative psychological effects


5. [because] not fully understand


6. [the] esoteric rituals like

With a palpable sense of relief, now we can figure it out. Translated into Italian, the sentence then becomes:

"Subjected to such treatment, *** would not benefit the small and may suffer negative psychological effects, why not include the esoteric rituals like "

That opinion is valid or not, here we are not interested. What matters is that this could be the meaning of the lexical riddle: "with Reiki will benefit the child and could not receive damages" . I used the conditional "could", because it still lacks some, the introductory " said not considered at all " , who denies all the action, that the statements " not have any good " and " may even suffer negative psychological effects " . It denies it so decided, with the adverb "not" used as an intensifier of negation "not" . In Italian and then translating the entire sentence you get:

"That said it is not considered at all that with Reiki the child will receive benefits and could damage "

which means:

"That said it is believed that the benefits of Reiki and the child will not receive damages"

The work of the researcher spin doctors that we saw in the previous pages have given rise to laughter. In this case, which involves a particularly disadvantaged child, the court can not be that much tougher.
