Many things in Pentecost have outlived their purpose, and if we are not careful, they can become an object of worship.

Adaptation is necessary for survival.
I don't think a suit and tie will ever become an object of worship. The church should never become commonplace. When the dress code goes down so does the respect and reverence.

In my opinion, a casual dressed man will take a more casual approach to what ever he is doing......
Don't care for robes myself...they remind me of catholics and anglicans.
