A recognized blasphemy day? INCREDIBLE. I refused to even capitalize the "b". I would consider myself a theistic, bordering on atheistic, existentialist. I do not see; however, why it is necessary to launch a recognized day where people collectively bash on religion/God. First, aside from the few states where this is illegal, protecting the rights of free speech in religion/anti-religion is performed anyhow. Secondly, does anyone really know the fate of the unknown? How can there be a concrete event, such as this one, without it being based on concrete thoughts? Essentially, these individuals are putting their "faith" in God being nonexistent, thus recognizing the idea of God as existent.

Religion can be described as a particular system/movement of faith and worship. See the above excerpt for clarification.
