The Code of Calantiawis the mind poorness code of the Filipinos that a Spanish Scholar invented that criticises Filipinos! He let most of the Filipino bilieve with its folish codes that he really doesn't know the culture Filipino has!

[edit] Myth or Hoax?

The article characterizes Kalantiaw as "mythical", implying a long historical tradition that acknowledged its truth, or some basis to it. Yet it was actually written within the last 100 years, and has been established as a hoax, and a most cruel one at that which depicted pre-Hispanic Filipinos as barbaric.

Don't want to touch it for now, but perhaps Kalantiaw can be called by something other than "mythical"? --Anyo Niminus 16:20, 6 January 2007 (UTC)

If your asking me "hoax" really sounds POV no matter how you look at it. Also if you li8ved during that time, these practices weren't realy seen as "barbaric" since they were practised by Babylonians, Muslims, and even Europeans, all of which were considered "civilized".--23prootie 06:37, 23 February 2007 (UTC)
