Why did the Philippine censors wish the noli to be noli you legere read you not?

The Philippine censors wished for "Noli Me Tangere" to be called "Noli Me Tangere" read not to prevent people from reading it, as the novel contained criticisms of Spanish colonial rule and religious hypocrisy that could provoke anti-colonial sentiments among Filipinos. By discouraging the reading of the book, censors hoped to quell any potential rebellious ideas that may arise from its content.
