Jose Rizal is our national hero but he is not a demi-god as most historians would depict him.
I think stories about Jose Rizal are exaggerated maybe because people tend to relate the concept of "heroism" with perfection (just like how Superman's signature curled hair on the forehead remains neat while flying and fighting).
Jose Rizal, like any human being has flaws too. I've seen real pictures of him taken in black and white. It appears, however, that he is a short fellow (more or less 5-5'2)and not so good looking at all. So, actors like Aga Mulach and Cesar Montano aren't his lookalikes. Too bad, people relate heroes with the tall, dark and handsome type.
Secondly, I know people say that he is a linguistic and knows all major languages in the world. But i guess, it is also another exaggeration. For example, he only spent a few weeks (2 weeks i think but i'm not sure) in Japan and do you think by that time, he could have perfectly spoken Niponggo? That is beyond man!!! I think that he may have some learned conversational Niponggo but it is impossible for him (nor any man) to master a language in such a short span of time.
Historians also say that he is very talented because he is a doctor, architect, etc... Some may be true but i don't think he deserves every job description attached to him. For one thing, in a bio movie, he was shown to have set up an irrigation system when he was exiled in Dapitan. For that, he was called an "architect". My dad has done that before for our farm. Does that make him an architect too then? Think.
Jose Rizal has helped so much in our history but i hope historians will depict him with more reality and sincerity because he deserves to be known as he is. He is our national hero and I hope the future generation will see him the way he should be seen and not as a superhero of some kind. (",)
Rizal was a Filipino nationalist, writer, and revolutionary who played a key role in the Philippines' struggle for independence from Spanish colonial rule. His works inspired a sense of national identity and resistance against oppression. Rizal's writings, particularly his novels, continue to be influential in Philippine society and culture.

of course not. it's true. i think that Rizal was intelligent enough to be used by other people or just pretend to be hurt on the trials that he experienced. and that he don't even love our country.
i think so!
do you think filipino people benefited from rizal's travel abraod?
Rizal used the pseudonym "Dimasalang" when he joined the masons.
i think the world was in a good condition, but its more better when rizal born.. 100% correct..

Rizal thought that London is safe because of the democracy and the freedom to express himself freely in the UK.

Jose Rizal was shot to death by a firing squad because he was accused of inciting rebellion against the Spanish government in the Philippines. His writings and advocacy for Philippine independence made him a threat to the colonial authorities, leading to his execution on December 30, 1896.
