Francis Does Not Believe in Christ's Multiplication of Loaves
The Gospel of the multiplication of the loaves (Luke 9,16) does “not mention the multiplication as such,” Pope Francis said in his June 23 Corpus Christi homily.
According to Francis, it emphasizes not the multiplication but the words “break”, “give” and “distribute” and therefore “the act of sharing,” although this concept is never mentioned.
Francis went on pontificating that Christ did “not change five loaves into five thousand to then to announce: ‘There! Distribute them!’” Rather, it’s the five loaves that never run out, Francis suggests.
However, the fact that twelve baskets of broken pieces were left over (Lk 9,17) implies that there was a multiplication. So many leftovers cannot be explained with the claim that the five loaves "never ran out."

This also flies in the face of a parallel account, in Mark. Here is the testimony of the Holy Spirit on the matter, when later that night Jesus was walking on the water and calmed the storm when he got into the disciples boat. The Bible says, "He got into the boat with them and the wind died down. They were completely astounded. They had not understood the incident of the loaves. On the contrary, their hearts were hardened." (Mark 6:52) Neither does pope francis understand. His mind is closed, at least on the multiplication of the loaves and fish.
