During his Saturday visit to Fatima, (Bergoglio) did not kneel nor genuflect during the liturgies. He abstained from kneeling at the tombs of the two seers Francisco and Jacinta, in front of the statue of Our Lady, at the consecration, and during the Eucharistic adoration although a kneeler was placed in front of him.
Health issues cannot be the reason for Francis' behaviour as he kneels when washing the feet of migrants, prisoners or transvestites on Holy Thursday.

Catechism of S. Pius X
How do we fulfill the First Commandment?
We fulfill the First Commandment by the practice of internal and external worship.
What is internal worship?
Internal worship is the honor which is given to God with the faculties of the soul alone, that is with the intellect and the will.
What is external worship?
External worship is the homage that is given to God by means of outward acts and of sensible objects.
Is it not enough internally to adore God with the heart alone?
No, it is not enough internally to adore God with the heart alone; we must also adore Him externally with both soul and body, because He is the Creator and absolute Lord of both.
Can there be external worship without internal worship?
No, in no way can there be external worship without internal, because unless external worship is accompanied by internal, it is destitute of life, of merit, and of efficacy, like a body without a soul.
