Gaming Question Reduxious

So a pen-and-paper gaming question for anyone inclined.
In most RPGs, there's really no difference between 'secular' arcane magic and 'ecclesiastic' divine magic; the difference between the wizard and the cleric is really just the spell list and the cleric is better-armored. I'm trying to find a way to elegantly differentiate the two. Do any of y'all out there have favored ways of doing this, or favored systems, or just plain ideas?
