III. CONCLUSION
The controversy whether Jose Rizal actually
wrote a retraction document only lies in
the judgment of the readers as to the
Masonic Rizalists who firmly believed
that Rizal did withraw and the Catholic
Rizalists who were convinced that Rizal
retracted. His writings speaks of our
nationality and identity as a Nation.
