As a lector for 20 years, I am very interested in liturgical expression. I see people referring to 1) Pre-Vatican II, 2) Post Vatican II, 3) The "early church, and 4) Biblical references to decide how Catholics “ought” to do liturgy. I’m certain I do not know “THE” answer, but I try to see the good in what others to. It is good to pray reverently. It is good to pray joyfully. It is good to pray individually; it is good to pray communally. It works for me to leave it at that.
 
It should be noted that Cardinal Arinze has said the church doesn’t tightly regulate the postures of the people, and repeatedly refused to call the people saying the Pater Noster in the Orans posture an abuse. He very carefully stated that calling for it from the pulpit would be.
