"El legado del ignorantismo" by T. H. Pardo de Tavera is a critical conference delivered in 1920 to an assembly of educators in Baguio, Philippines. This book serves as a historical account focusing on the impact of secular education in the Philippines since the American occupation. It explores themes of morality, societal progress, and the influence of religious education, arguing that ignorance and superstition have hindered real development and understanding in society.
In this compelling discourse, Pardo de Tavera examines the consequences of religiously driven education, suggesting that it fosters ignorance and a sense of dependency on divine intervention rather than encouraging personal responsibility and logical reasoning. He critiques the narratives propagated through religious texts and novenas that, in his view, undermine moral development and contribute to a culture that evades accountability. Throughout the text, he advocates for a secular educational framework that cultivates critical thinking, self-awareness, and realistic societal progress among Filipinos, challenging the notion that spiritual guidance alone can address moral and social issues.
