===Condemnation of 1277===
{{see also|Condemnations of 1210–1277}}

In 1277, [[Étienne Tempier]], the same bishop of Paris who had issued the condemnation of 1270, issued another more extensive condemnation. One aim of this condemnation was to clarify that God's absolute power transcended any principles of logic that [[Aristotle]] or [[Averroes]] might place on it.<ref>{{Cite book |title=The Foundations of Modern Science in the Middle Ages: Their Religious, Institutional, and Intellectual Contexts |last=Grant |first=Edward |publisher=Cambridge University Press |year=1996 |isbn=0-521-56762-9 |pages=81–82}}</ref> More specifically, it contained a list of 219 propositions, including twenty Thomistic propositions, that the bishop had determined to violate the omnipotence of God. The inclusion of the Thomistic propositions badly damaged Thomas's reputation for many years.{{sfn|Küng|1994|p=112<!--assumed from original ref name-->}}
