Pope Theodore I of Rome, however, did not recognize Paul as he did not consider the deposition of his predecessor, Pyrrhus, to be canonical. Theodore's position was ignored in Constantinople.
Paul was associated with the emperor Constans II's "[[Typos]]", which was thought to have been written by him for the emperor. The decree attempted to end the controversy between heretical [[Monophysitism]] and Orthodox Dyothelitism with the introduction of the heretical [[dogma]] of [[Monothelitism]].
At the [[Sixth Ecumenical Council]] of 680 in Constantinople, which was convened by emperor Constantine IV, Paul was condemned as a [[heretic]] along with [[Sergius I of Constantinople|Sergius I]], [[Pyrrhus I of Constantinople|Pyrrhus I]], and Peter, all Patriarchs of Constantinople, Pope Honorius of Rome, and Patriarch [[Cyrus of Alexandria]], amongst others, for their actions supporting Monothelitism. Paul reposed in 653.
