Answer (2)

I would have to say false - as churches are completely full of icons. What is forbidden is statue.

The answer is false; the Eastern Orthodox Church does not forbid icons. Instead, icons are deeply cherished and play a vital role in worship. The use of icons was re-affirmed at the Second Council of Nicaea in 787 AD.
