:::I dont mean to be rude but who is [[Manuel Gedeon]]? Is he an authorised representative of the Orthodox church in 1899?? Maybe I may not be phrasing this question right ... what makes him an authority on the topic? Not being pompous ... just want to learn more about this ...
:::If [[Manuel Gedeon]] is historically important since he has contributed significant work towards Orthodoxy, maybe you could start up an Orthodox Wiki article about him so we can learn more .. I know that I would be interested.[[User:Ixthis888|Vasiliki]] 00:23, November 21, 2008 (UTC)
 
== "Iconolater" language ==
 
Unless there is a clear preponderance of evidence that Irene '''worshiped''' icons as '''idols''', it is extremely inappropriate to use the term ''iconolater''. The technical term is ''iconodule''. (''Iconophile'' is a bit fanciful and not really accurate, either.) I'll revert any further edits along these lines. &mdash;[[User:ASDamick|<font size="3.5" color="green" face="Adobe Garamond Pro, Garamond, Georgia, Times New Roman">Fr.
