Re: Clergy Collar
Actually it looks like the collar has had broad acceptance among most denominations, with the Roman Catholics not being among the first.
"Invented in the Presbyterian Church, the clerical collar was adopted by other Christian denominations, including Anglican Church, Methodist churches, Eastern Orthodox Church, Baptist churches, Lutheran churches, and the Roman Catholic Church.[3] In 1967, the Roman Catholic Church adopted the clerical collar after the abandonment of the cassock, which was discouraged in the public.[6][7] Anglican clergy generally wore the collar so that it was visible all the way round, but the Roman collar differs in that it was a black band of the cloth revealing the white collar centre front.[3][8] Clergy of various denominations will today wear either style as preferred or appropriate to the occasion." http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clerical_collar
