The day has spawned a rival National Day of Reason on the same day, started by humanist groups and other opponents of the National Day of Prayer."Here are five facts about prayer, including survey data on Americans’ prayer habits and historical instances of prayer intersecting with the government...."http://www.pewresearch.org/fact-tank/2015/05/06/5-facts-about-prayer/"For many Americans, every day is a day of prayer. More than half (55%) of Americans said they pray every day, according to a 2013 Pew Research Center survey, while 23% said they pray weekly or monthly and 21% said they seldom or never pray. Even among those who are religiously unaffiliated, 21% said they pray daily. Women (65%) are more likely than men (46%) to pray every day. Older people (60%) are more likely than younger adults (45%) to say they pray daily." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
