Some instances of church can be that way, though. But really, what is wrong with that, if that is the way a person feels led to minister, and it is effective with the ones to whom they are ministering? Did Jesus wear anything that distinguished him as a minister? I think not. Just dressed appropriately.
I am just saying we cannot become a "clerical collar" sort of people.

Paul became all things to all people so that he might win some. Within reason.
