In 2009, in comemmoration of the publishing of the Mohammed cartoons, the Center For Inquiry proclaimed 30 September International Blasphemy Day (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blasphemy_Day), an annual event intended to promote general disrespect to all things religious. I’ve been observing it all day and haven’t been struck by lightning or been otherwise subjected to any smiting.
