The folks who try to grab your hands for the "Our Father" and do the "holy field goal" heaving up of the hands at "Lift up your hearts" get looked at funny around here. They stop after awhile (or keep their hands down so nobody can see that they're dealing off the bottom of the deck.)

It's particularly amusing to me because I used to be an Episcopalian, and they never did sign on to all this ad lib nonsense. Their theology may be severely defective, but they know bad taste when they see it.

Which nicely illustrates the extremely tenuous connection between faithful Christianity and good taste.
