https://harvardmagazine.com/2007/07/faculty-faith.html https://harvardmagazine.com/2007/07/faculty-faith.html 37% of professors at elite universities are atheist or agnostic. Saying Harvard is friendly to the religious because it has a divinity school is like saying Stanford is a hotbed of the rightwing because of the Hoover Institution, except that you would expect a lot of atheists and agnostics at Harvard’s divinity school and no Marxists at Hoover.

Could both the Hoover institution and the divinity school be a signal that there are no communists on campus? I sometimes wonder if the US is less secular than Europe because atheists were for a long time associated with communists. Church going people obviously couldn't be communists.
