Pope Honorius I was condemned as a heretic by three ecumenical councils. All newly elected popes had to profess his condemnation before they could assume their office until the eleventh century and all Latin priests recited it in their breviary until the sixteenth.

Pope Honorius I (625-38) was posthumously condemned as a heretic and excommunicated from the Church by the ecumenical Council of III Constantinople (680-1). He promoted the heresy of the Monothelites, who taught that there is only one will in Christ; the orthodox doctrine is that Christ has separate wills in his human and divine natures.

Yet, Honorius I was called "vicar of Christ" by the Roman Catholic church, when in fact he was an antichrist, which can be said for a large number of popes of Rome.

No he was not an antichrist. The Church is clear.

You are not supplying many examples of clear understanding of the Church, I’m afraid.
