Observed annually on the first Thursday in May, the National Day of Reason is a secular and legally recognized U.S. holiday created in response to the National Day of Prayer. This holiday is dedicated to individuals who do not adhere to the recognition of God or any specific religion or faith. The primary aim of this day is to offer a positive and inclusive alternative to the National Day of Prayer, emphasizing the importance of separating religion from government. Additionally, the day aims to foster a sense of community among the non-religious population in the United States.
