Q

Who?
The novels have no intentions of discrediting the Church.

“Rizal did not pretend to teach religion of theology when he wrote those books. He aimed at inculcating civic consciousness in the Filipinos, National dignity, personal pride, and patriotism… but while he criticized and ridiculed the unworthy behavior of certain ministers of the Church, he made exceptions in favor of the worthy ones., like the Dominican friar, Padre Fernandez, and the virtuous native priests Padre Florentino, and the Jesuits in General.

Q

Who?
“Noli Me Tangere and El Filibusterismo must be read by all Filipinos. They must be taken to heart, in their pages we see ourselves in a mirror, our defects as well as our strength, our virtues as well as our vices. Only then would we become conscious as a people and so learn to prepare ourselves for painful sacrifices that ultimately lead to self reliance, self respect, and freedom.

He proposed amendments (May 9,) -. He removed the compulsory reading of Rizal’s novels and added that Rizal’s other works must also be included in the subject. (He remained adamant that the unexpurgated versions must be read)

Q

Who?

Compulsion to read something against one’s faith impaired freedom of speech and religious freedom.

They presented a false picture of
“A vast majority of our people are the same time Catholics and Filipino citizens. As such, they have two great loves, their country and their faith. These two loves are no conflicting loved. They are harmonious affections, like the love of a child for his father and for his mother. This is the basis of my stand. Let us not create a conflict between nationalism and religion, the government and the church. “
