There’s no shame in iconoclasm, since God is the ultimate iconoclast.

[Sherman Logan]

There has been a shift towards iconoclasm in our shamelessly secular culture. I suppose that the movement never went away, even after the Second Council of Nicaea ruled against it, but many seem to have morphed into outright modern-day Savonarolas.

Savonarola was not an iconoclast. He hated rich people and luxuries, not images or icons as such.

He was actually a very interesting guy, though not one you'd probably want to have a beer with. :)

New iconoclasm? Probably because it takes away from the worship of Self.
