Why Harvard’s Atheist Chaplain Matters Less, and More, than You Think

“Does this mean that Epstein has just been hired for a new job as Harvard’s atheist chaplain? Has he become Harvard’s ‘chief chaplain’? Does this mean that he now ‘leads’ and is “in charge of” Harvard’s other chaplains? Did these other chaplains decide that they ‘couldn’t think of anyone better’ for spiritual chaplaincy at the university? Is this a big, new change for campus ministry at Harvard? … the answer to all of these questions is ‘No.’” - IRD
