Submission Guidelines

Project Reason has two sections that can be populated with submissions: the Archive and the Newsfeed. The guidelines for each are as follows. All submissions will be reviewed by our volunteer editors before being posted to the site.

Project Reason Archive Submission Guidelines

  • Please avoid material that is too topical or trivial. There will be a daily newsfeed on the website covering recent intrusions of religion into politics and public policy. For the archive, we are looking for material that will stand the test of time: the best examples of critical thinking, rational ethics, etc. (think Darwin, Twain, Russell, Orwell, Sagan, Dawkins...) For videos, we want quality documentary footage or great (and relevant) comedy. We are hoping to dig very deep here and quickly gather a lifetime's worth of fine reading and viewing.
  • Please include at least one (perhaps several) Tags with each submission. For instance: Islam, Christianity, Judaism, Eastern Religion, Comedy, etc.

Project Reason Newsfeed Submission Guidelines.

  • Please submit high quality articles that have been previously published and are relevant to the concerns of the Project Reason
  • Newsfeed articles should be reasonably topical, but not trivial. The litmus test is: Are you glad that you read this article?
  • Please include at least one (perhaps several) Tags with each submission. For instance: Islam, Christianity, Judaism, Eastern Religion, Comedy, etc.
  • Please indicate whether the article belongs in the "Articles on Reason," "Articles on Religion," or "Hall of Shame" sections of the Newsfeed. Hall of Shame articles should contain egregious examples of unreason on the part of otherwise reasonable people. Example: Kristof, N.D. (2008, February 3). Evangelicals a Liberal Can Love. The New York Times.
