I think that this is because now is a tag and date is a filter, and
you probably have a
a "date" variable in context. You could try passing in a "now"
variable from your
view.
Try rendering {{ date }} in this template to see whether there is such
a variable.
I think that you can only use variables, or variables passed through
filter, or literal
strings, in tag arguments. Or I may be missing something.
