So, what is it you believe about icons?
Edit- reading your posts...
Doesn't this one:
>A dwelling place in matter for dead heroes who were once incarnate? Same.
Contradict this one?
>Channel. A pipe isn't the home of water.
Your beliefs on icons might be a bit confused. You should come back after studying what we actually believe about icons, so you won't be arguing against strawmen. I'd start with St. John of Damascus. It's a $5 paperback on Amazon.
Start there so you understand our position first. That'a way you know what you're arguing against.
Most bishops would not require rebaptism, assuming your baptism invoked the trinity and it is a plus if it was via immersion. In Australia , I don't believe any of those bishops would have you be baptised again.
I used to struggle with icons but the writings in defense of them by St. John of Damascus convinced me. I recommend you read his Three Treaties
