Call for papers: faith and atheism in Australia

I'm involved in organising a conference on Questioning God: Faith and Atheism in Australia, to be held in Sydney this October. There's a call for papers, and we're especially interested in interdisciplinary perspectives on contemporary faith and atheism.

    Questioning God: Faith and Atheism in
    Australia will be a very different kind of conference.

    It is the intention of the organisers to plan
    a conference that will enable a constructive
    engagement with the ‘new atheism’.

    :

    Will there be any prominent atheists in attendance? The sparce information on the website looks one-sided.

    Yes, at this stage I think we have a mix of Christian, Islamic, and atheist scholars — also an expert on Buddhism. So it's not meant to be just another "three cheers for Christianity" type of event!
