Which of the following statements would a byzantine opponent of iconoclasm most support? a. christian images should be destroyed, as they are idols. b. praying to images of jesus christians feel closer to their faith. c. all religions present similar, valid paths toward salvation. d. the ten commandments are only applicable to jews and muslims.

Iconoclasm is a movement in Byzantium aimed at destroying icons under the explanation that the worship of icons is the same as idolatry, strictly prohibited by the ten commandments of God. Opponents of the iconoclamps have advocated the idea that icons help faithful people, through the saints and Mother of God on icons, to strengthen their faith and lift it to the very God. So the icons were a means of prayer.

Therefore, the first option offered is incorrect because it is contrary to the views of the admirers of the icon.

The third option offered is generally correct, although it does not have any expressive attitude towards the icons.

The fourth option offered is inaccurate for two reasons: the first is that the ten commandments also belong to Christian doctrine, the other is that the ten commandments do not apply to Muslims, only to Jews.

The answer is B.

b. praying to images of Jesus helps christians feel closer to their faith.
