While Islam was contained in the southern
islands, Spain conquered and converted the remainder of the islands to
Hispanic Christianity. The Spanish seldom had to resort to military
force to win over converts, instead the impressive display of pomp and
circumstance, clerical garb, images, prayers, and liturgy attracted the
rural populace. To protect the population from Muslim slave raiders, the
people were resettled from isolated dispersed hamlets and brought
"debajo de las companas" (under the bells), into Spanish organized
pueblos. This set a pattern that is evident in modern Philippine
Christian towns.
