Christianity. We already know that Christians in Spain have a strong influence on us. Christianity
has since emerged, and during the early years of Spanish colonization, the Church governed most
educational activities. Spanish missionaries and friars educated the natives and converted them to
Catholicism. As we all know, Dr. Jose Rizal mentions and acknowledges Christianity, which was
founded by Spaniards, "Christian education always procures." In this line, Rizal also highlights
the importance of Christian education as opposed to education that is spiritually devoid, which he
obviously views as a key tenet.
