some believed images of christian figures should be allowed in paintings and sculptures, while others argued that sculptures should not be allowed because they took a human form.
some believed the use of icons and their veneration was fine, and others felt that icons should not exist because it could lead to idolatry.
some felt that only church members should be allowed to worship icons, but others felt that anyone should be allowed to worship icons.
