5. Secularization Movement
• Secularization of the parishes was the transfer of ministries established and
run by regular clergy [Spanish friars] to the secular priests [Filipino
priests]. By the middle of the 19th century, the secularization movement
was transmuted into a political and separatist movement that exploded in
the Filipinization of the church and culminated in the separation of the
church from Rome during the Philippine revolution (Agoncillo 1990).
• The secularization was organized secretly by Padre Mariano Gomez and
Padre Pedro Pelaez. The conflict between regular and secular priests arose
when the regular priests (friars) attempted to seize the control of parishes
from the secular priest and the rampant abuses and discrimination made by
the friars against the seculars (Gripaldo et al., 2009).

LIFE AND WORKS OF JOSE RIZAL
• It was abruptly abrogated or pacified, and all those who participated were
either executed or exiled. After the 'containment' of the mutineers, the
Spanish authorities initiated a crackdown on those who had connections to
the mutiny, which ended up in the implication of the GOMBURZA.
• The 1872 Cavite Mutiny is considered the first workers' strike (welga) in
the Philippines and Asia.
