Pope meets with Castro, preaches to thousands in Cuba

Pope meets with Castro, preaches to thousands in Cuba

Pope meets with Castro, preaches to thousands in CubaSANTA CLARA, Cuba (AP) - On his first full day in "this beloved country," Pope John Paul II went straight to the hearts and home life of the Cuban people, despairing over the island's easy access to abortion and scolding the Castro government for closing the doors to Catholic education.
When it comes to schools, "parents ... should be able to choose," the pope declared to applause from tens of thousands assembled for Mass in the dust and sweltering heat of an athletic field in this provincial city.
The demand for Catholic education was also believed high on John Paul's agenda for the most important official encounter of his five-day visit - a meeting yesterday with President Fidel Castro.

AP PHOTO Cuban president Fidel Castro presents Pope John Paul II with a 120-year-old biography of Father Felix Varela at the Palace of the Revolution in Cuba yesterday. In just two addresses over less than 24 hours, on the first papal visit ever to this Caribbean nation, the pontiff has been blunt in listing what he considers failings - along with accomplishments - of Cuba's communist system.
And in this unprecedentedly open, high-profile criticism of the 39-year-old revolution, he has found help from a surprising quarter - the system itself.
The Communist Party newspaper, Granma, published Wednesday's papal arrival speech, including its call for "a climate of freedom" in Cuba. Even more important, the government is devoting hours of national television time to the papal events, giving the merely curious - in bars, shops and homes - a heavy helping of John Paul's message.
The Havana leadership clearly is taking a calculated risk that this may encourage dissent. But just as clearly it hopes to burnish its image with a display of tolerance and openness.
What the curious saw yesterday was an outpouring of deep emotion and affection for the 77-year-old pontiff after he flew in for a half-day in this heartland city.
"We feel it! We feel it! The pope is here among us!" the crowd chanted as the "popemobile," a white pickup truck topped by a bulletproof-glass compartment, wended its way toward the open-air altar.

[2ND-INF-DIV-KOREA-INDIAN-HEAD] Fwd: Amazing History Lesson]?? THE YEAR 1906?? This will boggle your mind, I know it did mine! The year is 1906. One hundred years ago. What a difference a century makes! Here are some statistics for the Year 1906 : ************************************ The average life expectancy was 47 years. Only 14 percent of the homes had a bathtub. Only 8 percent of the homes had a telephone. . There were only 8,000 cars and only 144 miles of paved roads. The maximum speed limit in most cities was 10 mph. The tallest structure in the world was the Eiffel Tower! The average wage was 22 cents per hour. The average worker made between $200 and $400 per year . A competent accountant could expect to earn $2000 per year, a dentist $2,500 per year, a veterinarian between $1,500 and $4,000 per year, and a mechanical engineer about $5,000 per year. More than 95 percent of all births took place at HOME . Ninety percent of all doctors had NO COLLEGE EDUCATION! Instead, they attended so-called medical schools, many of which were condemned in the press AND the government as "substandard." Sugar cost four cents a pound. Eggs were fourteen cents a dozen. Coffee was fifteen cents a pound. Most women only washed their hair once a month, and used borax or egg yolks for shampoo. Canada passed a law that prohibited poor people from entering into their country for any reason. Five leading causes of death were: 1. Pneumonia and influenza 2. Tuberculosis 3. Diarrhea 4. Heart disease 5. Stroke The American flag had 45 stars. . The population of Las Vegas, Nevada, was only 30!!!! Crossword puzzles, canned beer, and ice tea hadn't been invented yet. There was no Mother's Day or Father's Day. Two out of every 10 adults couldn't read or write. Only 6 percent of all Americans had graduated from high school. Marijuana, heroin, and morphine were all available over the counter at the local corner drugstores. Back then pharmacists said, "Heroin clears the complexion, gives buoyancy to the mind, regulates the stomach and bowels, and is, in fact, a perfect guardian of health." ( Shocking? DUH! ) Eighteen percent of households had at least one full-time servant or domestic help. There were about 230 reported murders in the ENTIRE ! U.S.A. ! Now I forwarded this from someone else without typing it myself, and sent it to you and others all over the United States,& Canada possibly the world, in a matter of seconds! Try to imagine what it may be like in another 100 years. IT STAGGERS THE MIND, ?
