Best Answer

In the early days of the Reformation Protestants frowned upon the Catholic Church; indeed, the word "Protestant" means "one who protests." In this case the founder of the Reformation, Martin Luther, protested the various "indulgences" that the Catholic Church would bestow, for the right price; most of these included a letter that would guarantee a deceased relative's entry into Heaven.

Tensions have eased, in general, between the two movements in more recent times, although some on each side remain biased against the other side for various reasons.

Are you violating your religion by wearing something from another religion?

The answer to this question is largely situational depending on which faith you profess.

Others take a stricter stance and view the wearing of objects from other religions as a "sin" for lack of a better word.
