Pray or play - maybe you mean like "why don't you just go play out in traffic" but "why don't christians just go out and pray in traffic" ? Either way - it was quite immature on your part, and I do believe that was a waste of 5pts. However, I am not a christian, or a believer in "Abba" or God- it's pretty rotten to say such a thing and makes you look pitiful.
Your question wasn't very clear, nor was it a legitimate religious question.
I do admit I giggled a bit :P

What are the motives for praying like that ?
5And when you pray, do not be like the hypocrites, for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and in the street corners to be seen by men. I tell you the truth, they have received their reward in full. 6But when you pray, go into your room, close the door and pray to your Father, who is unseen. Then your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you. 7And when you pray, do not keep on babbling like pagans, for they think they will be heard because of their many words. 8Do not be like them, for your Father knows what you need before you ask Him.
Matthew 6:5-8
The hypocrite loves to pray standing. The posture of the hypocrite in this instance indicates that he is a proud person and does not humble himself to God. Jesus is not saying that it is wrong to pray standing up. The posture of one's heart is more important than the posture of one's body. The hypocrite is proud and prays to be heard by men. God does not hear his prayer. In fact, the hypocrite is not concerned with whether or not God does hear. The hypocrite's only concern is the esteem of his fellow man. This is the only reward he will receive for his prayer. It is the only reward he desires.
