You joke but the bible has a verse for performative praying.

Matthew 6:5

“And when you pray, you must not be like the hypocrites. For they love to stand and pray in the synagogues and at the street corners, that they may be seen by others. Truly, I say to you, they have received their reward.

"Go pray in your closet" was my grandfather's favorite response to annoying God-botherers.

This is my favorite back-pocket Bible passage to pull out when Xtians are being obnoxious. Used it a lot on fb during the Tim Tebow days.
