In his Sunday after Corpus Christi homily, Francis moralised that “we cannot break bread on Sunday if our hearts are closed to our brothers and sisters. We cannot partake of that Bread if we do not give bread to the hungry. We cannot share that Bread unless we share the sufferings of our brothers and sisters in need.”
This reminded of his embarrassing June 2019 Corpus Christi homily in which he claimed that the Eucharist is “Jesus who becomes bread.”
In the Catholic Faith which was transmitted by the apostles, it's the other way round: bread becomes Christ's body because the transubstantiation changes the bread's substance into the substance of Christ's body (CCC 1376).

Or is it "Francis LacksIgnores Elementary Catechism Knowledge"
The Pope is unfamiliar with the tenets of the Catholic religion, and Biden and his cabinet are either unfamiliar, or have forgotten, the document to which they have sworn allegiance under God.
The post-modern postscript.
Nothing like a Jesuit, is there?
I vote for Ignores
Affirmative action Pope.
Without even reading the article it just seems inconceivable, to me, that given Francis’ long Catholic experience that he could “lack” elementary Catechism knowledge. What appears to be lapses of his in that regard MUST be, in my opinion, when he is just ignoring that elementary Catechism knowledge that he is well aware of; the alternative seems so unlikely.
This is a fact. It was well known and much written about the man’s near complete lack of understanding of the Christian faith and Catholicism in particular. When his name first came up as a possible replacement Pope a great many theologians warned against confirming this deeply flawed man as Pope.
His Marxist leaning was also well known and written about. All this being known he was made Pope.
It is my contention and that of many others the flaws briefly summarized here is Exactly Why he was made Pope. The leftists after decades of infiltration finally had the numbers at the top of the church to get such a man to represent them and their desire to Fundamentally Transform the Catholic Church.
Openly pro abortion Joe Biden is scheduled to meet with Pope Francis during this European trip. Wonder if Catholic Joe will attend a papal mass and receive communion directly from Pope Francis?
Pope Frankie is 84 years old. Maybe he’s experiencing a mental decline like his new bosom buddy Biden.
Maybe in a homily he’ll start rambling on about an desperado back in Argentina called Pap de Maiz who harassed him while he was working as a bouncer in his youth.
Enough, I’m ready for someone to throw holy water on him. I think he will sizzle.
So give bread to the poor. Fine. Catholics have always done that, both personally and in institutions.
But he does not preach the message of salvation to the poor: Almost as if the poor are also a “strawman” for him, not people.
Francis bought off the gay Cardinals with promises of leniency and coverup and that’s most of them. Easy election.
“Is the Pope Catholic?” used to be a joke question.
We can still count on bears.
“Is a bear Catholic?” 😎
More than the Pope!
