Then you aren't frequenting the right Protestant churches. FWIW, I have.
Lifting up the hands is not the same as stretching out arms of the arms, but turning their palms upwards, boatbums.
Pivoting the hands at the ends of the arms so that the palms face upwards is not lifting hands up. *lifting up* means raising in elevation.
Honestly, your standard of prove as evidence against something is anemic at best. You really need to work on finding something of more substance.
If you're going to reject Scripture and the church, and by implication God, or criticize someone for being wrong, you ought to at least have some really good reasons for doing so.
Sheesh.....
INDEED.
Then you aren't frequenting the right Protestant churches.
Oh, so there are "right" and "wrong" Protestant "churches?" Could you give me at least a partial list of them so I have a better idea? And while you are at it, could you tell me what makes them right or wrong?

Any time you want to talk about it, please don't hold back. But, right now we are talking about the manner of worship, and two groups of people claiming the same source while worshiping in divergent ways (Jews and some Protestants), not about faith, Church or the Bible.
