All of this happened some 250 years ago. Talk about holding a grudge. Let it go. What these folks ignore is that when Serra came to California the local natives were living a stone age existence. They were hunter gatherers with no written language and were not even on top of the food chain being preyed upon by the California grizzly. It was a tough life and the missions offered the benefits of civilization including agriculture. More power to any of these protesters who would like to go back to that way of life.

Shouldnt they be protesting Spain?

I grew up visiting that little church in Carmel and learning the history of Fr. Serra....
These people need to move on, get a life and let people worship in peace on the the holiest of days...shameful expression of intolerance...

Just more mob hysteria, the only point of which is to hurl spit at Christianity. Guess the Indiana indignation is wearing a little thin.
