issues in the Philippines during the nineteenth century.
1. Filipinos must be educated.
2. Filipino women must be courageous, strong-willed, and educated.
3. Tyranny happens if people remain coward and negligent.
4. Ignorance is tantamount to servitude.
5. A person who loves his independence must first aid his fellowmen.
6. If Filipino women will remain ignorant, complacent, weak, and passive they
should not bear children.

man to be a slave, nor did He provide him with intelligence just to deceive him.
