Maria Florentina
Of all the incidents that happened in the personal life of Rizal, there were two that stood out and, in the minds of the biographer Leon Maria Guerrero, brought
Rizal to the path that he would take:
the execution of the three secular priests (GOMBURZA), and the injustices done to his mother.
Rizal himself said, as quoted by Guerrero, “Had it not been for the events of 1872, Rizal would have been a Jesuit.” Such was the impact of the execution of Jose Burgos, Mariano Gomes and Jacinto Zamora to the life of Rizal. What was being referred here?
GOMBURZA execution
was Pelaez’s co-leader in the seculars’ protex against the order from Spain mandating secular priests to handover their parishes to the regulars (Blanco, 2010).
Padre Mariano Gomes de los Angeles
They wrote a petition in the name of the Cavite seculars to the Queen to abolish the order and, at the same time, affirmed the seculars’ loyalty. They also raised funds to maintain an agent in Madrid. His being a Chinese mestizo priest working with a creole one was seen as a more widespread and comprehensive action of the seculars.
Padre Mariano Gomes de los Angeles and Padre Pelaez
an insular, was a protégé of Padre Pelaez (Uckung 2012). An intellectual whose loyalty to the Church and the Crown was noticed and many times commended by then Manila Archbishop Gregorio Meliton Martinez
Padre Jose Apolonio Burgos
was also a leader in the secularization movement after the death of Pelaez. The “pamphlet” published in 1864 containing a manifesto defending the honor of Pelaez against the baseless accusation that he led a movement to overthrow the colonial government and, at the same time, the rights of the secular clergy was generally attributed to him.
Padre Burgos
it was his addiction to gambling that finally did him in, for the incriminating note was simply talking about playing cards (bullets) and money (powder)
