This is just baffling. What would a frown look like for him?
What I always thought was a smiley 
Are you sure it isn’t (: ?
It’s an upside down one but, if you look at it, is still a smile.

I would like to point out that on my iOS this emoji 
only appears when I type Pray .
So if it has been used X amount of times (I am guessing) by a user as high five they it will be picked up for future use I hope

Typically I use it interchangeably as please or thank you, but I still type :pray when I go to use it

I watched the Circle earlier this year, and everyone called it “praying hands emoji” when they used it.

The first person on the forum to admit to watching The Circle accidentally reveals himself after falling into a ‘what does this emoji mean’ trap. An elementary error.
