Nope. I sit respectfully, hands folded in my lap and wait for it to end. Standing, I cross my hands in front of my waste and wait for it to end. It's a bit like standing for the national anthem of a country that is not your own. I do it out of respect for the people but not because I necessarily respect the country. (*Now here is a thought..... "Wouldn't it be nice if the theists would return the gesture?"
It would actually be fun to ask to lead the prayer and then make it overly exaggerated and dramatic and include a parody of King James bible language.
"Oh deareth, beloved, almighty, infallible, perfect, sovereign heavenly Father, the one who livest for ever and ever, the only trueth God, the one who searches the hearts of men and judgeth. We pleadeth to approach thine throne of undeserved kindness in humble prayer. What is man oh Lord, what isith man that thou shouldest pay us attention or hear our prayers and suplications oh God? Worms, oh God worms, we know we areth worthless worms in the face of thine majestic glory, but we beggeth thou to hear our miserable pleas, even though we deserveth death and punishment for our sins, that have amassed unto heaven in magnitude, and caneth only be cleansed by the insatiable flames of Gehenna..." etc.
I imagine what people would think... lol
If you said that prayer in front of fundies, then odds are it'd just sail right over their heads and they'd probably completely agree with it. However, if they're moderates, then they'll see right through it and get suspicious. Lol nice
