An Atheistic Examination of the Culture of Death
Carnival Time at TRA - Thu, Jan 20, 2005
The Raving Atheist will be hosting the 123rd The Carnival of the Vanities next Wednesday, January 26th, 2005. Founded by Silflay Hraka in September 2002, the Carnival offers a second chance to showcase that magnificent, ground-breaking post that should have gotten an Instalanche and 683 comments but somehow scrolled off your main page without even attracting viagra spam.
To participate, put "COTV Submission" in the subject line of an e-mail sent to me at both ravingatheist-at-aol.com and ravingatheist-at-hotmail.com, containing the following information:
Title of your Blog (required)
URL of your Blog (required)
Title of your post (required if it has one)
URL linking to that post (required unless you inexcusably still lack permalinks)
Description of the post (preferred, but see below)
Religious (or non-religious) affiliation (not required)
Submission deadline is Monday, January 24th, 2005, 11 p.m. (EST). I will send a confirmation to all entrants; please leave a comment at this post if you do not hear from me within 24 hours. Late entries will be accepted at my discretion, the degree of begging necessary inversely proportional to the time remaining before the Carnival.
No specific topic or theme is required, although entries dealing with atheism or religion will likely be listed first. Submissions from religious bloggers of any denomination are welcome and will be treated with all the respect they deserve. However, the truly devout should consult with clergy to determine whether a link from me will jeopardize their salvation (see, e.g., 1 Corinthians 5:11). You might consider poking around this blog bit (particularly the Atheist News) to make sure that you really want to be associated with it.
Failure to submit a description of your post will put me to the trouble of characterizing it. If that happens, please keep in mind that interpretations differ, and ours may differ (especially if the post is about religion) to the point that you institute a libel suit against me (which would ultimately be dismissed with costs, attorney's fees and sanctions).

Good one RA.

So this is the perfect COTV for submitting a snippet about Focus on the Family?
Excellent....
Thanks for the detailed instructions. You forgot, however, to tell us where to send our DNA samples.

Hey, just checking out the blogs in my vicinity in the TTLB Ecosystem - huh, funny. Joe Missionary meets The Raving Atheist. :)
Hey, there's a really good atheist blogger out there who is not on your list - http://theomorph.blogspot.com. He's worth a read!
