The Godcast, Episode 376: Nicaea II's Goofball Opponents

Continuing in our biweekly series on the seventh ecumenical council, let's read opposing decrees. In the first half we cover the turd-stained declaration of the iconoclasts, which is dripping in bad hermeneutics. Then in the second we cover the turd-stained declaration of Nicaea II, where the bishops just assert the same thing over and over again. Turns out both sides sucked and should have been Lutheran, let's chat about why.
