Answer:
Claim: Modern Filipinos have lost a lot of the moral authority and capacity for development had by our forefathers.
Explanation:
As shown by the text:
"Unity and disarray of the magnitude achieved by our age could not have developed during Spanish rule."
There aren't many leaders emerging from the current generation.
Analyzing the evidence
The existence of discord and disarray is supported by this data, but it does not imply that Filipinos have lost their moral authority and influence.
This data demonstrates that there is a lack of leadership, but it does not establish that the Filipino people have lost their moral authority and power.
Further proof:
3. The Philippines has experienced an increase in corruption, poverty, and crime rates over time, which may point to a loss of moral authority and power.
Why did I pick this instance?
To illustrate how moral power and strength are eroding in a more tangible and quantifiable way. It is possible to view corruption, poverty, and high crime rates as signs of a morally weak society.
