Wrapping up his visit to Santiago de Cuba and bound for Havana, Pope Benedict XVI has sparked widespread speculation that he will meet with the island's former President Fidel Castro.
Church officials say Benedict is scheduled to meet again with President Raul Castro, along with his family. The meeting could include Raul Castro's famous older brother, who stepped down from power in 2006 after battling illness, though it is not clear if that will occur.
Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez also arrived on the island over the weekend, reported by Cuban state television to be in Cuba for radiation treatment for cancer.

Maybe that's why we're called the "Witches of the West"?
Cubans are mostly Catholic, but they aren't really allowed to openly practice this religion in the country. Its mostly because they fear the Commie government. Therefore, "official" numbers mistakenly support the idea that they are majority atheist.
