The destruction of a Los Angeles-area Catholic parish by arson-- causing at least $8 million in damage-- is the latest in a rash of attacks on Catholic churches in California over the past two years. Some churches have suffered burglary, others graffiti and the destruction of statues, and one has had a tabernacle desecrated.
