What was the Conflict all about?
Conflict began when the bishops insisted on
visiting the parishes that were being run by
regular priests. It was their duty, they argued, to
check on the administration of these parishes.
But the regular priests refused these visits,
saying that they were not under the bishops
jurisdiction. They threatened to abandon their
parishes if the bishops persisted.
The Effect
In 1774, Archbishop Basilio Santa Justa decided to
uphold the dioceses authority over the parishes and
accepted the resignations of the regular priests. He
assigned secular priests to take their place. Since
there were not enough seculars to fill all the
vacancies the Archbishop hastened the ordination of
Filipino seculars. A royal decree was also issued on
November 9, 1774, which provided for the
secularization of all parishes or the transfer of
parochial administration from the regular friars to
the secular priests.

The Katipunan
The Katipunan was a Philippine revolutionary
society founded by Filipino anti-Spanish people
in Manila in 1892, which was aimed primarily to
gain independence from Spain through revolution.
The society was initiated by Filipino patriots Andres
Bonifacio, Teodoro Plata, Ladislao Diwa, and others
on the night of July 7, when Filipino writer Jose
Rizal was sentenced to banished to Dapitan.
Initially, Katipunan was a secret organization until
its discovery in 1896 that led to the outbreak
of Philippine Revolution.
