Shocking, but not true.
\"Sacred Arts Foundation is pleased to announce its acquisition of the Monastery Icons collection of sacred art a unique, modern testimony to the timeless ancient, classical tradition of Christian iconography.\"

Sacred Arts is a very professionally run orginization, and although they are Catholic, I don\'t think they would sell Buddhist items. Here is an email from someone online who had contacted them:
Now, this letter may be completely faked from beginning to end, but I find that equally as likely as Fr. Anthony simply being misinformed. No offense meant to Fr. Anthony, and I\'m sure he did come in contact with some weird cult in Oklahoma, but it appears they aren\'t connected with Monastery Icons at all.
Please, guys, try to do a little research on your own before spreading rumors like this!
Dear Friend,
Thank you for contacting us. About ten years ago competitors and enemies of Monastery Icons perpetrated the spurious information cited in Fr. Nelson?s letter, in an attempt to compromise the business of Monastery Icons. Fortunately the sacred arts ministry of Monastery Icons was not harmed by this attempt, and most people recognize the letter for what it is: a bizarre conglomeration of lies, fantasy, and misinformation.
Further, Sacred Arts Foundation acquired the Monastery Icons sacred art collection three years ago. The Monastery no longer manufactures the icons nor does it own the Monastery Icons business. The icons from Monastery Icons are not blessed with any rituals, “occult” or otherwise. Thank you again for your interest. If you have any further questions or concerns please do not hesitate to contact us.
Sincerely
Richard
