The National Day of Prayer is scheduled to be held Thursday, May 3. But this year as millions bow their heads, atheists, humanists and other non-theists are planning a holiday of their own.

They’re planning protests outside government buildings that hold prayer gatherings. Organizers say they want people to reflect on what they can do for themselves.

The American Humanist Association

The American Humanist Association (AHA) works to protect the rights of Humanists, atheists, and other nontheistic Americans. The AHA advances the ethical and life-affirming worldview of Humanism, which—without beliefs in gods or other supernatural forces—encourages individuals to live informed and meaningful lives that aspire to the greater good of humanity.
