>> Is it an improvement that liberals are hostile to people praying in public now, when they didn't used to be?<<

Your question assumes that liberals are hostile towards all forms of public prayer, which I don't see as being the case. For one thing, not all liberals agree about everything. I'm not especially bothered by prayer one way or another.

When I was a boy, living on Air Force bases, we were led in prayers in school each morning. My daughters are not led in prayer in school now. I do think that's an improvement, as these prayers would constitute an official endorsement of religion, which is barred by the First Amendment.
