Godless Carnival and Humanist Symposium. There is much rejoicing.

Edited to add: I’m still getting loads of hits on this post. This is not a link to the most recent godless carnival and humanist symposium but for the ones in late July.

Disgusting, isn’t it?

The 122nd Carnival of the Godless was posted on Sunday over at Cyberlizard’s Collection.

It is a very good (and larger than usual?) mix this time, with the host adding some intelligent commentary and ruminating on the value of such carnivals. There is a ton of good reading, which only proves that us here atheistical types has seized us the whole darn internets, as proven by carnivaler BlagHag proves.

Carnigirlpink2Please do not get dehydrated while enjoying the carnivals.

Dr. Jim’s submission on  debaptism, C’MON OUT, THE BLOWDRYER IS FINE! comes last in the list.

Sadly, my perfectly sensible post about the Calgary Stampede, animal rights, God, the History of WWII, gopher hunting, cave folks and cats didn’t make the cut. Alas. It even had ostriches. See it here…

The Carnival goes every two weeks, submissions have to be in by the Friday before. To nominate a post go here: carnival submission formPast and future hosts here blog carnival index page.

Being a humanist, Dr. Jim appreciates cultural sensitivity and studying people from around the world. But not in a voyeuristic, National Geographic, “Oh look, the women folk there don’t wear lots of clothes” sort of way. No. Not Dr. Jim.

The humanists have a biweekly symposium that I’ve just noticed. The most recent, the 40th (a good biblical number) was posted at The Evolving Mind.

Some excellent ruminations of personal freedom, human dignity and Scoobydo and the Holy Ghost. To submit an article to the Symposium, click here.


Now, apparently the Biblical Studies Blog Carnival is set for the end of the month at Jim West’s Blog. I’ve never had a post in that, either. To submit a post, go here.

I do like blog carnivals. If you see anything here that might fit in one (i.e., The Carnival of the Should be Committed), feel free to submit. Now, here is a quick pictorial reference chart to keep things straight.
