Pope Francis poses with Buddhist monks as he visits the Agrashravaka Temple in Colombo, Sri Lanka, Wednesday, Jan. 14, 2015. Pope Francis made a last-minute change to his schedule to visit an important Buddhist temple in the capital, becoming only the second pontiff to visit a Buddhist place of worship after St. John Paul II paid his respects at a Thai temple in 1984. Catholics make up slightly more than 6 percent of Sri Lanka's population of 21 million. They are by far the largest Christian denomination in the country, but are a distinct minority compared to Buddhists, who make up about 70 percent, with Hindus comprising 13 percent. Muslims make up about 10 percent of the population. (AP Photo/Osservatore Romano/pool)
