Overview

Excerpt from The Open Court, Vol. 18: A Monthly Magazine Devoted to the Science of Religion, the Religion of Science, and the Extension of the Religious Parliament Idea; August, 1904 Much can be said for as well as against icons. Protestantism and, more so, Puritanism, reject them as pagan, while both the Greek and Roman Catholic Churches have sanctioned their use. We abstain here from discussing the subject, and would, from the stand point Of the impartial investigator Of facts, only indicate that they play a most significant part in the history Of civilisation. One can not deny that in spite Of their indubitably pernicious influence among the superstitious, they have been the means Of great achievements, especially in religion and art.
