I'm not a professional plumber, but fairly experienced with plumbing. From what I understand, a p-trap allows for a small pool of water that acts as a barrier between the nasty stuff down your drain, ie. poisonous gases and smells.

It is certainly required by plumbing codes and should the sewer/septic gases build up they can cause illness/death or cause an explosion.
