    In one sentence that synthesizes your learning from reading this module, listening to the online class discussion, and the making of the
    study guide above, explain the purpose of RA 1425. (5 pts)

     To rededicate the lives of youth to ideals of freedom and nationalism (for which our heroes
    lives and died)
     To tribute to our national hero for devoting his life and works in shaping the Filipino character.

    Is the Rizal Law relevant in present times? If yes, discuss its immediate relevance to your life as a student and citizen of the
    Philippines, if not, discuss at least two reasons why you think it no longer serves a relevant purpose. (10 pts)

     Aims to promote nationalism within the country


     To spread the ideologies of Rizal
    The significance of Rizal’s works to the lives of the Filipino people is vastly great. Because it
    mirrors the situation of the past to the present.
    II. Read the following excerpts from the statements of the legislators who supported and opposed the passage of the Rizal Law in
    1956. Then, answer the questions that follow. (15 points)

    “Nole me Tangere and El Filibusterismo must be read by all Filipinos. They must be taken to heart, for in their pages
    we see ourselves as in a mirror, our defects as well as our strength, our virtues as well as our voices. Only then would
    be become conscious as a people and so learn to prepare ourselves for painful sacrifices that ultimately lead to self-
    reliance, relf-respect, and freedom.”
    Senator Jose P. Laurel
    “Rizal did not pretend to teach religion when he wrote those books. He aimed at inculcating civic consciousness in the
    Filipinos, national dignity, personal pride, and patriotism and if references were made by him in the course of his
    narration to certain religious practices in the Philippines in those days, and to the conduct and behaviour of erring
    ministers of the church, it was because he portrayed faithfully the general situation in the Philippines as it then
    existed.”
    Senator Claro M. Recto

    “A vast majority of our people are, at the same time, Catholic and Filipino citizens. As such, they have two great loves:
    their country and their faith. These two loves are not conflicting loves. They are harmonious affections, like the love fir his
    father and for his mother.
    This is the basis of my stand. Let us not create a conflict between nationalism and religion, between the government and
    the church”.
    Senator Francisco “Soc” Rodrigo

    Questions
    1. What was the major argument raised by Senator Francisco “Soc” Rodrigo against the passage by the Rizal bill? (5 pts)
    First, is to led to endanger to his Catholic faith. And also because it shows the real situation of the Filipino on that era when the church
    is more powerful than the government. In addition he did not let his teenage son to read this two novels of Jose Rizal ( Noli Me Tangere
    and El Filibusterismo)it because of being Anti-Church of this author.
