This was excellent! The writing style you use reminds me of Fr. Stephen Freeman’s blog -Glory to God. Which I hope you take as a compliment. I found it to be thought provoking , and well written. I don’t give any credit to ChatGPT for this. Well done!

Thank you. Very comprehensive explanation of why we have and venerate Icons. One of the best I have read. I shared it with my husband and he said your writing is very elegant and asked me if you had a degree in Theology? I said no, History. Well done.

Egg tempera which is used for traditional iconography uses egg yolks, not egg whites
