I don't believe so, but this would also depend on the state, city, and county you live in, or where the "offense" occured. About the only time where it could be against the law is if you impersonate a priest during legal proceedings (like a police interview, or court proceedings and such). Otherwise, you may offend some people......but I've seen people dressed like priests and nuns all the time.......especially at Halloween parties. Best of luck to you.

Yes it is an offence to impersonate a offense becasue it would be a sin to brake the law and the law of the church

I'm pretty sure it is. Impersonation of a doctor, police officer etc., is a criminal offence no matter if it's done in person or by some other means.

Only if you try to hear a confession, or bless something, or say a mass etc. I don't think it's an offense to dress as a priest.

Yeah! It's an offense to impersonate anyone ...

Not if you're talking about going to a costume party or something fun. But to go around ACTUALLY pretending to be a priest is morally wrong but not legally wrong.

No. Not unless it is for criminal purposes. You could impersonate a postman too but if you do it for criminal purposes, as with anything, you will get, as they say, nicked.
