Petitioning: Sympathizers to victims of Tyranny and Oppression

Petitioner: Kate randle started on January 31, 2009

We, the undersigned would like to ask Christie's, Sotheby's and other similar art delaers to stop selling antique Orthodox icons because these objects are sacred and should be be an "art".

These objects could be stolen from the churches, monasteries and should be placed only in the right places. Not at home for personal art collections.

Please return them and stop selling holy items that belong to the churches!
