Of Gomburza Jose Rizal wrote in his introduction to El Filibusterismo: ”The Church, by refusing to degrade you, has placed in doubt the crime that has been imputed to you; the Government, by surrounding your trials with mystery and shadows, causes the belief that there was some error, committed in the fatal moments; and all the Philippines, by worshipping your memory and calling you martyrs, in no sense recognizes your culpability.

But he died young. Coming from a family of ardent Rizalistas, I’ll have to admit that Rizal disagreed with the Revolution, his two burning novels of protest, the Noli and the Fili had done much to inspire and provoke. Gat Andres Bonifacio, the founder of the Katipunan, was disappointed when the delegates he sent to Rizal’s place of exile in Dapitan to beg him to lead the Revolution came back with a "no." Emilio Aguinaldo of the Katipunan was also disappointed.

Two years in the making, the museum-show is a review of Philippine history in lights and sounds. It affords both Filipinos and foreign visitors a crash course on our past as a people, highlighting how our forebears lived, loved and fought colonizers.

The reaction from all over has been fast and sometimes furious, often sober yes, and at times ridiculous. If I had written that column five or ten years ago, when the Philippines still looked perched on a sturdy hill, very few would have minded, really. But now that the republic is besieged on all fronts by crisis in battalia, and terror is a huge shadow falling upon all, many have taken to emotional arms. Fine.

We could not agree more. Bad priests are counter-productive. They only serve to discredit the Church. If priests cannot live up to their vow of chastity, they have no business remaining in the priesthood. When a person has sex with someone he is not married to, it is a mortal sin.
