All the research I have done on this Talmid tells me that the prayer shawl or Tallit, is NOT a biblical commandment, but the tying of the tzitzit on the four corners of the garment is. Since we no longer have those kinds of garments ( disregarding the new ones made for men to wear under their clothes continuously with four corners) the prayer shawl was invented. It has four corners to tie the tzitzit to. Now since the whole meaning is to remember the commandments I do not see where someone that not only believes in the G-d of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob AND Yeshua , can not wear one.
Funny Story, My Rabbi ( yes he is Jewish) ws raised reformed and did not even eat Kosher ( his family still doesn't) and years after he and his wife started the congregation he refused to wear a tallit she had bought for him. He laughs about that now, but this is true.
I think if there is going to be an objection it should be over the tzitzit, not the prayer shawl , which is not Biblical.
