Probably because Darwin smartly never spent much time on origins.
However, on the same day and in the same year, a God fearing man worthy
of real respect was also born.-a Abraham Lincoln.
We used to celebrate his birthday, but they combined birthdays and
created President's day to just have one day off in Feb.
Darwin's day isn't an official holiday. It was meant to acknowledge
Darwin's contribution to our understanding of nature.
Biologos usually celibrate Darwin Day, but I didn't see anything this year.

This is what I got when I searched Darwin Day on their web site.
