I’m really stoked to be able to announce that the August 23, 2009 Carnival of the Godless will be hosted right here on Radical Atheist. This is the first time I’ve offered to host the Carnival but I doubt it will be the last. I’ve long enjoyed reading past CotG entries and am excited to finally be involved in bringing them to you.

If you haven’t yet enjoyed an issue of the Carnival, you should head over to Socratic Gadfly and read the entries in the current edition. Different authors present their unique insights on atheism, skepticism, godlessness in society and a host of other topics related to the godless life.

I encourage all of you to submit your own work or other blogger’s posts you’ve read and think should be exposed to a wider audience. Submission is easy using the pre-formatted submission form.

There are only two rules for submissions:

Carnival of the Godless

Carnival of the Godless

1. The post you send in must be from a godless perspective and address something such as godlessness, atheism, church/state separation, the evolution/creation debate, theodicy, philosophy of religion as it relates to godlessness, etc. There is a huge amount of wiggle room in the post subject and we will consider every submission carefully for inclusion.

2. You may only submit one post per carnival. More may be accepted at the host’s discretion. If you submit a post that you really think ought to be included from another blog, and the author of that blog also submits a post, we’ll use their post. This should be considered a great way to get one of your excellent, but (for whatever reason) unknown or underrated posts in front of a potentially huge audience. Grab the bull by the horns!

I know from the comments I’ve received that a large number of thinking individuals are always on the lookout for new blogs to read. The Carnival of the Godless is a great venue for finding new blogs to add to your RSS rotation.

Some great articles are already being submitted and I look forward to reading those submitted in the next two weeks. Please bookmark Radical Atheist and visit again on August 23rd for the 124th edition of the Carnival of the Godless. I guarantee you’ll be enlightened, entertained and challenged.
