controversy continues
Summary
The first mass controversy in 488 years ago Portuguese explorer
Ferdinand Magellan “rediscovered” archipelago in March 1521 and made
history. Little did he know that more 400 years later, two places will
contest the site of the recorded first mass in the Philippines whether it
was held in Limasawa Island Leyte or in Mazzua or Masao in Butuan. Over
the years, it came to a point when the national historical institute, in a
decision handed out a few years black had ruled that the recorded first
mass in the Philippines was indeed in Limasawa Island.
Viewpoint/Argument
The issues sparks when Dr. Gregorio Zaide his daughter, Sonia in several
editions during the 1980’s of their widely-decontaminated history
textbook, insisted that the recorded first mass was held in the Marao,
Butuan and in the process, dismissed the Limarasa claim as erroneous.
Evidence that state to support viewpoint/argument

Limasawa Island and the years where the first mass in the Philippines
recorded.

but aa regards intermediate dates all that we can reduce from his
narrative.
