Changes made in edit

Most of the members of the church, like the founders Aglipay and De Los Reyes, are activists, often involved in progressive groups as they advocate for nationalism, anti-imperialism, democracy, as well as opposing extra-judicial killings. They have been victims of forced disappearances and been branded as leftist by the government for being aligned with progressive groups, specifically after Obispo Maximo IX Alberto Ramento was killed for being an anti-government critic.

Since 1960 it has been in full communion with the [[Episcopal Church in the United States of America|Episcopal Church]] of the United States (and through it with the entire Anglican Communion) and, since 1965, with the [[Old Catholic]] [[Utrecht Union|Union of Utrecht]] Association of Churches. Today the Philippine Independent Church or Aglipayan Church is the second largest Christian denomination in the Philippines after the Roman Catholic Church. The bulk of the Aglipayans comes from the northern part of the island of Luzon especially in the Ilocandia region, where its first supreme bishop came from. Now the church is divided into 10 dioceses which includes the Diocese of United States and Canada. But, due to a lack of priests, many parishes in the USA are priestless.

His line of episcopal succession goes back from the first Obispo Maximo Aglipay and which is followed by 10 other successors. The Philippine Independent Church is considered the most tangible product of the 1898 Revolution against Spain.{{Fact|date=September 2008}} ==Rise of nationalism== At the end of the 19th century, [[Philippines|Filipino]] [[nationalism]] emerged, preceding the struggles of other colonized countries in [[Asia]] such as [[Great Britain|British]] [[India]] and [[French Indochina]], and the fight for independence gave way to revolution. [[Latin America]]n countries at this time were also breaking away from [[Spain]]. With the execution of prominent ethnic Filipino clergy such as Fr. [[José Burgos]] at the hands of the Spanish royal authorities, church reforms became a facet of the Philippine independence movement. ==Colonial church== Whereas many Spanish friars protested abuses by the Spanish government and military, other friars were committing many abuses. Many Filipinos were enraged when Spanish [[friar]]s blocked the ascent of the Filipino clergy in the Catholic Church hierarchy. Vast lands were claimed as friars' estates from landless farmers. There were also widely known cases of sexual abuse of women by priests. ''Anak ni Padre Dámaso'' (Child of [[Father Dámaso]], alluding to a character in one of Rizal's novels) has become a cliché or stereotype to refer to an illegitimate child, especially that of a priest. The death of Fr. [[José Burgos]], Fr. Zamora, and Fr. Gomez is said to have indirectly ignited the Philippine revolution and had a profound effect on Dr. [[José Rizal]]. ==[[Gregorio Aglipay]]== {{main|Gregorio Aglipay}} {| class="wikitable" |- [[Image:Gregorio Aglipay.jpg|thumb|right|200px|[[Gregorio Aglipay]] in his youth before excommunication]] |} Gregorio Aglipay was an activist [[Roman Catholic]] priest from [[Ilocos Norte]] who, despite his intercession and defense of some of the Spanish Roman Catholic clergy from liberal-nationalist Filipino revolutionaries, was excommunicated by the [[Holy See|Vatican]] for inciting rebellion within the Filipino clergy. During the brief interlude between independence from the Spanish and the subsequent reoccupation by the [[United States|Americans]], [[Isabelo de los Reyes]] (also known as Don Belong) and Aglipay reformed the Filipino Catholic clergy into the Philippine Independent Church, officially established in 1902. The new church absolutely rejected the spiritual authority of the [[Pope]] (then [[Pope Leo XIII]]) and abolished the [[celibacy]] requirement from its clergy, allowing marriage among its priests, who were all apostate Roman Catholic priests. Later on, the new independent Church reformed the traditional Roman Catholic [[Tridentine Mass|Latin Tridentine liturgy]] drastically after the model of the [[Book of Common Prayer|Anglican vernacular reform]]. The Eucharist has been said in [[Spanish language|Spanish]] (sometimes: Portuguese) for already more than one hundred years in the IFI.

Some factions, tending towards more radical cryptoprotestant reforms, formally joined other denominations including the [[Episcopal Church in the Philippines|Episcopal Church]] and the American [[Unitarianism|Unitarians]]. Today, the Philippine Independent Church is affiliated with the [[Old Catholic]]s and the [[Anglican Communion]]. Aglipayans number around 3 million, mostly in the [[Ilocos Region]].
