HAVANA (Reuters) - Pope Francis met Cuba's revolutionary leader Fidel Castro and celebrated Mass with tens of thousands of followers in Havana's Revolution Square on Sunday as police prevented some dissidents from getting close to the pontiff.
Francis and Castro discussed religion and world affairs at the 89-year-old retired president's home, just hours after the pope warned Cubans of the dangers of ideology and the lure of selfishness as their Communist-ruled country enters a new era of closer ties with the United States.
