Default Another Question For Catholics.

I've noticed something odd at mass. Many people hold hands during the Lords Prayer. The people on the left or right will hold their free hand in the air. I've noticed it started gradually about three years ago. Now at my church nearly half the congregation does it. It seems very heathen like and disrespectful. I've heard and read that the Church frowns on the practice I'm not sure why my Pastor hasn't taken steps to dissuade his parishioners from continuing the practice.

Has anyone else noticed this or is it a regional practice? I've heard people are pretty upset over the disrespect part but I'm not sure how others feel. I don't care that much but I am not holding some nutjobs hand.

Bush is dumb.
