Secularists counter prayer day with National Day of Reason
As millions of Americans bow their heads Thursday for the annual National Day of Prayer, atheists, humanists and other nontheists will mark a day of their own.
The National Day of Reason â or "NDR" in the shorthand of the nontheist community â will also be held May 3, part protest, part celebration and totally godless.
"In times of great conflict and worry, people want to look to a higher power, and I am sympathetic to that," said Paul Fidalgo, communications director at the Center for Inquiry.

Have pity! These poor blind and ignorant fools (according to the Scriptures) do not know Christ.
2Cor 4:3 But if our gospel be hid, it is hid to them that are lost: 4 In whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them.

Gal 5:19 Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these; Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness, 20 Idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies, 21 Envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I have also told you in time past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.
