To procure the means necessary for this colossal undertaking, the pope and the cardinals were to contribute the tenth part, and all other ecclesiastics the twentieth part, of their income for three years.
Honorius III ordered Gualo, his legate in England, to urge the recalcitrant barons to return to their natural allegiance and gave him power to excommunicate all who continued to adhere to Prince Louis of France.

 HONORIUS I
Pope Leo II in approving the decrees of the Council stated that Pope Honorius was condemned because "he permitted the immaculate faith to be stained."
Such an introduction to the life of Pope Honorius I is spectacular and suits well the position of this pope in church history, but it does little justice to his achievements as an administrator, highly regarded by his contemporaries.
Honorius was born in Campania, the son of Petronius, a consul.

 CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Pope Honorius I
And in addition to these we decide that Honorius also, who was pope of elder Rome, be with them cast out of the holy Church of God, and be anathematized with them, because we have found by his letter to Sergius that he followed his opinion in all things, and confirmed his wicked dogmas".
It should be noted that he calls Honorius "the confirmer of the heresy and contradictor of himself", again showing that Honorius was not condemned by the council as a Monothelite, but for approving Sergius's contradictory policy of placing orthodox and heretical expressions under the same ban.
The condemnation of Pope Honorius was retained in the lessons of the Breviary for 28 June (St.

 Catholic Culture : Document Library : Guilty Only of Failure To Teach
An analysis of the case of Pope Honorius and its impact on the doctrine of papal infallibility.
Honorius, without further investigation, accepted Sergius's presentation at face value, seeing the dispute as "an idle question" to be left to the "grammarians who sell formulae of their own invention" (Scripta fraternitatis vestrae, quoted by Fernand Hayward in A History of the Popes, 90).
Likewise, Pope Leo II (682-683) faulted Honorius because he "did not endeavor to preserve" the faith and for having "permitted" it to be assaulted, but not for having either invented, taught, or adhered to the heretical doctrine (Paul Bottalla, S.J., Pope Honorius Before the Tribunal of Reason and History, 111-112).

 The Supposed Fall of Honorius and His Condemnation
A very particular interest attaches to the case of Pope Honorius, so often cited against the doctrine of papal infallibility, because it is the strongest case presented in the history of the Church, and to an unpracticed controversialist has the appearance of being unanswerable.
The letters of Honorius were burned because they were destructive to the Church and favorable to the heretical contumacy of Sergius, not indeed, in doctrine, but in their approbation of the rule of silence and in too great lenity toward the heresiarch.
Honorius was condemned by the Council for a sin of omission in a most weighty matter which was destructive to the peace of the Church.

Monothelism was condemned by the successors of Pope Honorius: Pope Severinus (640-640) formally condemned it, Pope John IV (640-642) and Pope Theodore I (642-649) excommunicated Pyrrhus, patriarch of Constantinople, for defending the same error.

 Catholic Apologetics International - Robert Sungenis
According to Pope Leo II, Honorius did indeed know of Monothelitism, which is why Leo II said in his condemnation of Honorius: “Honorius, who did not attempt to sanctify this apostolic Church with the teaching of apostolic tradition…” How could Pope Leo II accuse Honorius of not abiding by the tradition if Honorius, as Mr.
Pope Honorius and the Monothelites were speaking of two very different things when they embraced the concepts of “one will.” Honorius was simply reiterating Our Lord’s testimony concerning himself that “I always do the Father’s will,” whereas, the Monothelites were denying in Christ the existence of a fully human nature.
Larson: Pope Honorius was persuaded by Sergius (remember he was quite ignorant of this new heresy and the machinations of its proponents), therefore, to enjoin silence concerning either the existence or non-existence of either one or two “operations” in Christ.

Secondly, the Pope sought to define nothing on this question and on that basis alone, the breach of papal infallibility that is often raised is a baseless contention.

 June 16 DAILY CATHOLIC TEXT Section One (jun16txt.htm)
Pope Honorius IV inherited the mess that Pope Martin IV had left and, though he tried to instill the kind of stern, strong leadership of Pope Nicholas III he left a lot to be desired.
Honorius, realizing the culture of Sicily had tilted strongly to the Angevin line, balked and excommunicated James, knowing that to face the "music" now so-to-speak would be better than down the line when another civil war similar to the Sicilian Vespers outburst during Martin's regime might erupt and spoil everything.
While Honorius had much clean-up work to do in the aftermath of the rubble left in Martin's wake, he was strongly in favor of the religious orders, particularly the Dominicans and Franciscans to whom he extended greater privileges and conditions as well as giving them exclusivity in the court of the Inquistitions.

 Guilty Only of Failure to Teach (This Rock: 0010)
Though Agatho asserted the orthodoxy of all his predecessors and the infallibility of the apostolic see, he left open the possibility that a pope is nonetheless liable to judgment should he "neglect to preach the truth" to the faithful.
Honorius is condemned because of what the council "found written by him to Sergius;" in which letters Honorius "followed his [Sergius’s] view and confirmed his [Sergius’s] impious doctrines"(Nicene and Post-Nicene Fathers, 343).
When confirming the council, Pope Leo II (682—683) faulted Honorius because he "did not endeavor to preserve" the faith and for having "permitted" it to be assaulted, but not for having either invented, taught, or adhered to the heretical doctrine (Paul Bottalla, S.J., Pope Honorius Before the Tribunal of Reason and History, 111—112).

 THE TRUTH ABOUT POPE HONORIUS (This Rock: September 1994)
By all contemporary accounts Honorius' personal conduct was beyond reproach, but his sincere attempts to resolve a controversy resulted in one brief sentence that many see as the destruction of the idea of papal infallibility and even of papal supremacy.
Honorius had answered accordingly, speaking, says Pope John, "only of the human and not also of the divine nature." Pope John was right.
