The "people" of Cuba can now attend mass. So I don't know what you are talking about. The church does not support or endorse communism. Many priests, bishops and lay Catholics have been imprisoned or killed in Communists countries like the USSR, China and Cuba. Ant the present Pope, John Paul II, along with Ronald Reagan and Margaret Thatcher have been instrumental in the fall of Communism in Europe.

I think you are confusing reality with your animosities toward the church.

"...the present Pope, John Paul II, along with Ronald Reagan and Margaret Thatcher have been instrumental in the fall of Communism in Europe."

The fall of the Berlin Wall was just a political symbol and a complete joke. Communism is still alive and well in Russia, China, and Cuba. My roommate who escaped from communist Vietnam would strongly disagree with you on this Berlin Wall stuff. Also, a former classmate from Russia revealed in class that Russia is still Communist for you have no rights to speak against the government over there as they (GRU) equivalent to the FBI follow you everywhere.

Also, what about the Vatican that is the higher orthodoxy of the Catholic Church? Why is it so friendly with Fidel Castro? Why is the Pope embracing Fidel Castro?

If the "people" of Cuba can now attend mass, why are so many desperately trying to get out of Cuba? And who are "the people" that you are referring to? Could it be that Pappa Castro kills those who denounce him as God? Sure, the Cuban government gives outsiders the impression that "the people" can attend mass but they do not have the freedom to worship Jesus Christ as their Savior. They also do not have freedom of travel. Many of them have died trying to get away from this possessed tyrant.
