Reflect on why Rizal highlighted the Story of the Moth in the last chapter of his Memorias. What was the message intended by Riz
Citrus2011 [14]

Answer:

1. The intended message was intended to alert the dangers of the obsession. This is because when we become obsessed with something we tend to ignore everything around us and act in an unreasonable and very dangerous way, which can cause us a lot of harm.

2. The moral of the story applies in today's society because we are increasingly obsessed with aesthetics, celebrities, erroneous politics, extremism, among other things.

3. The light symbolizes the danger disguised as something beautiful and attractive, but which is fatal.

Explanation:

The story told by Rizal is about a moth that becomes obsessed and attracted by the lit light of a lamp. The moth's obsession is so strong that he gets closer and closer to the lamp, ignoring all the advice for her to stay away. This ends up burning her wings and causing death. The moral of the story is that we must not let our obsession control our rationality and we must always reason whether what attracts us is really good for us.

How did the idea of <br> Manifest Destiny eventually lead to division within the Union?
Katyanochek1 [597]
<span>Basically, at one point in time while going westwards they reached states owned by Mexico, not just Native wildlands. There had to be a war then to conquer it to reach the sea. This divided people on whether or not people should fight Mexico. Another thing was that the expansion was at first mostly southern, which meant that more and more there were slave states, so they also divided on that and had to take in more northern places in to neutralize slavery influence.</span>
