OraProMe Posted October 8, 2009 Share Posted October 8, 2009 Cappie could probably answer this best but if anyone else knows that's cool. I believe that the Episcopal Conferences are allowed to decide what priests should wear and when, right? What are the rules for clerical dress in Australia? Because 95% of the priests I've seen just wear a little cross on their shirt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Theoketos Posted October 8, 2009 Share Posted October 8, 2009 I think that they had to change the secular laws of the Commonwealth to allow JP II visit and wear the Papal Regalia. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cappie Posted October 8, 2009 Share Posted October 8, 2009 in Australia, clerics are to dress so that they are "identifiable as clerics," and the diocesan Bishop is permitted to make further determinations. It is an individual diocesan decision. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
