~~~ Where would/could you 'not' be in prayer?

Yes, if the church is open. I wasn't sure whether you were asking if you can attend a church service and pray while in church or go into the sanctuary and pray during non-church hours.
Some churches are kept open and others are locked. It's unfortunate they have to be locked now, but people have gone in and stolen and murdered the staff.

You don't have to be a member of a particular faith or religion in order to pray or worship there. You can just go as a visitor. Most churches actually encourage people of other faiths or religions to visit their places of worship. It's usually how people choose which faith they would like to join after all. You visit various churches seeing what they believe in and how they worship. Once you find the one that suits you, you then make a decision to join them.

Of course, praying can be done in silence.
You might even think about having sex with the persons that you see in a church, mosque, temple, stadium, forest or whatever. The thoughts that you might have are yours

I believe that God hears all prayers, no matter what your religion. After all, you're not a Christian when you ask God to come into your life and cleanse you of your sins, but He does it. As a matter of fact, that prayer is what makes you Christian? I think? I wish I had some Biblical evidence to support this. Agh. I will look something up tomorrow.

You can pray in any church.
You can also pray any place. You do not have to pray out loud.

Yes, you can pray at any church. The one restriction I have encountered in visiting other churches is taking communion. Some will say all are welcome to partake, some won't.

Yes because you can control what you pray when you're saying what you want in your head.

It could be difficult in some churches if you are female.
