I didn't say anything myself, but the fact is that all Popes ``bind'' future popes to some degree. Infallible teachings of the church can't be change, and each succesive pope has less to define, because of what has come before him, starting with Peter. No pope can say that Jesus was only human, only devine, etc., etc.

In matters of faith, Popes bind future Popes all the time.

The manner and language of the Eucharist is not a matter of faith.
