I knew someone who told me that Marijuana was God's way of saying "Hi" ("High"?)!

As we got closer to Pope Francis' visit to the USA in Sept, I'm re-posting some things about Father Serra I wrote back in 2012. In addition, I just posted my personal views and opinions of the friar. Check it out @ http://msgdaleday.blogspot.com

As always, comments are welcome.

California legislators renew push against Junipero Serra, saint and Hispanic 'founding father'



Coming from California legislators, this doesn't surprise me. They lean so far to the left that all the doorways in the capitol building had to be rebuilt so they could get through them.

At least one group is fighting back, Salvemos a Serra (http://www.salvemosaserra.com/) or Let's Save Serra. To date, more than 46,000 Californians have signed English and Spanish petitions on CitizenGo.org asking that the attempt to removed the blessed father's statue from the US Capitol Rotunda.

Why are they doing this? Who are they pandering to? I see no big movement among the California Spanish community. There's nothing on Latino television or in their newspapers. The only “Indians” complaining about this are small bands, many of whom never even lived in areas affected by the missions!

Why aren't they complaining about the first American governor of California who, in 1840, had them rounded up and deposited on “reservations” in areas not wanted by the Yanks? :mad:

The story comes from http://www.catholicnewsagency.com/news/california-legislator...

46,000 out of 39 million. .1% hmmm...not bad for a start I guess.

Those pesky Indians complaining again. Instead of deriding them, why not promote giving something back that was taken from them.

No because it does not excuse what happened during the era of Father Serra. To pick something else out of context to justify his actions is just trying to distract from the real issue.

If Father Serra had only performed just one gay marriage, then he would be a hero to the left instead of an enemy. Of course even better if he were to denounce God! Think about that!

(as DT pointed out Sargento, there is not much hope of turning norte back north)

jajajajaja I said NOTHING bad, but you guys couldn't wait because it is true! LOL

As a libertarian, the government needs to get out of the people's way, as long as people bring NO harm to anyone else.

Well said Elgatloco. Also know that if we disagree with him we are liberals and lefties. I learn new things about myself everyday.

DK if your aunt had nads she be your uncle, a ridiculous statement is just that, ridiculous.

From the Catholic point I see why they will make him a saint. I am surprised there are enough Native Indians to put up much of a fight. Kinda like gay marriage, nobody cares that much ether way if you're not effected by it.

Does it matter to you or ANYBODY? No. Should it matter what I think about marriage? No.

What matters is that I am able to provide Baja history and travel details and offer friendship and help to other Nomads... always have, always will.

Let me ask this, is there some sort of point system employed here to bring up my name or initials when I suggest 'thinking' rather than just following what the CNN and MSNBC reports say? It sure is done a lot by a few of you here??
