    The document discusses opposition to RA 1425, also known as the Rizal Law, which would make the works of Jose Rizal compulsory reading in schools. It notes that devout Catholics urged lawmakers to reject the bill because Rizal's works were critical of the Catholic Church. It also describes how the Church alleged that Rizal's novels did not promote nationalism and ridiculed the Church. The Church campaigned against the bills through pastoral letters and articles in its publication to convince Catholics to lobby senators and congressmen.

    THE CHURCH’S ATTACK
    -The Church alleged, in a pastoral letter, that the novels of Rizal do
    not promote nationalism but more of criticism against it. It further
    alleged in that letter the presence of 170 passages from the Noli and
    50passages from the Fili which intend to diminish its good image.

    THE CHURCH’S CAMPAIGN


    The Catholic Action of Manila (CAM) was one of the principal
    organizations that initiated campaigns against the bills. Its two attempts
    were:1. to release articles of resistance daily, instead of weekly, through
    the Sentinel, its official organ2. To convince the Catholics to write the
    senators and the congressmen to junk the bills
