Tell him it's just showbiz. Like Dick Emery. Or Father Ted. Or The Archbishop of Canterbury.

Tell him it's a Priest's outfit NOT a Vicar's - then he'll understand

tell him that you have forgiven Jesus & have now seen the light & found your vocation as a Catholic priest.

OK!
Is it illegal to impersonate a member of the clergy?

Having a the merest thought that you need to justify anything to your father seems tragically weird..bless you

I'd just tell him a Catholic education,by and large,scars those who have had one.

They tend to leave school with an 'O' Level in Guilt and try as they might some of the teachings stay with the recipient for life.

It has to me said though that Moz is treated with almost religious like fervour by some fans.

I think the priest get-up is his way of trying to heal some scars.

I've heard that Mrs Morrissey is far from pleased with her sons latest line in clothing.

I'm with your dad on this one though.As a one off it would have been fine but it's time for a new wardrobe Moz

yes it is illegal but who hasn't done something a tad naughty?
I've performed 7 marriages, 13 christenings (6 Catholic & 7 Protestant) now but as long as everyone's happy eh?

I was wondering that, i will ask my tutor, i think its ok for him to do it as he isn't claiming ot be a member of the clergy, just impersonating like you said....

Well I don't HAVE to, i want to, i want him to understand why i like morrissey so much as he doesn't seem to see the appeal he always thought he was a weird one and his latest outfit isn't helping me convince him!

Illegal? Only if you do it well...

I do, however, have it on good authority that it's NOT illegal to set up a confessional in a public arena, i.e., stage left/in a pub. Hm...
