The idea of updating religious ikons reminds me of the story of the Jesuit mission in Canada as recounted by Francis Parkman. The Natives were curious about what the people in the Bible stories looked like, so the missionaries sent back to France for pictures. They said to not send any with beards since the Natives are put off by beards.
