The term you are looking for is 'veneration'. If you are interested in the practices in different churches with regard to icons, I would recommend editing to reflect that. | |
| Jun 21, 2013 at 14:02 | comment | added | Andremoniy | Well, I think that it is possible to explain in brief, by short thesis, an attitude to icons and icon worship for each confession (Orthodox, Catholic, Protestants (yes, I know, that there are many different denominations in it)) | |
| Jun 21, 2013 at 13:51 | comment | added | wax eagle | Also I'd bet quite a lot that not a single confession will admit to icon worship considering it's expressly prohibited in scripture. Whether they do or not really isn't the purview of this site. | |
