Was the doctrine of the Filioque, the "Double Procession of the Holy Ghost from the Father and the Son," declared to be a dogma of faith in the Fourth Lateran Council (1215), the Second Council in Lyons (1274) and the Council of Florence (1438-1445)?

And has that pronunciation of dogma been rescinded in the Catholic church?

"Any references to the procession of the Spirit from the Father and the Son does not imply heretical teaching that there is a double origin of the Spirit.

That is made perfectly clear from the proceedings of the Council of Florence refrenced above:

What dogma? The Catholic Church does not, and never did teach double origin of the holy Spirit. That is something taught only by heretics.
