Clergy Robes - Last Bastion of Anglican Identity?

http://www.prweb.com/releases/2008/10/prweb1491904.htm

[PR Web] 20 Oct 2008--A new title from evangelical Christian publisher Grove Books, Clergy Robes and Mission Priorities, asks whether Anglican ministers should be required to wear robes when leading public worship. This can be an explosive and divisive issue for Anglican congregations: some believe that clerical vesture remains one of the last outward signs of Anglican identity. Robing also leads to impassioned debate about the purpose and mission of the Church, and obedience to bishops.
