I think that one is from the Catholics.
Yes! That one is funny as I went to a Catholic church a few times and this phrase was said at one point during the Catholic mass. Everyone stands up and turns to the people around them, and shakes their hands. For the longest time, I thought the people were saying "pleased to meet you." Years later, I was told it was "peace be with you."
At one mass I was forced to go to, the congregation would turn to each other and say 'Peace be with you.' So this lady turns to me and says it. I hesitated a bit thinking and then said, "Burrito." As she sat down she could be heard quietly saying, "That poor boy has lost his faith."
Jokes on her though, cause I never had any in the first place.
