How would you refute the false teachings of Roman Catholic Church about the use of images?

Roman Catholic answerIt sounds like you are referring to Iconoclasm which is the heresy that the veneration of holy images is unlawful. About 726 A.D. the Emperor Leo the Isaurian published an edict which led to the destruction of images and persecution of their defenders. In 787 A.D. the seventh ecumenical council (II Nicaea) defined that "both the figure of the sacred and life-giving cross, as also the venerable and holy images ... are to be placed suitably in the holy churches of God ..." but that the honour paid to them is only relative for the sake of their prototypes: they are to receive veneration, not adoration; that is the faith of the Catholic Church and of the now separated Orthodox. But in 814 Iconoclasm broke out again at the instigation of the Emperor Leo the Armenian and his successors, and the persecution of orthodox Catholics and destruction of monasteries and images lasted till the Empress Theodora became regent in 842. St. John the Damascene and St. Theodore the Studite were the principle defenders of the orthodox teaching and practice. The custom in the East of using icons and mosaics but not round statues or other carved images seems to be a back-wash of Iconoclasm.
