Why This Book Exists

One of the hardest subjects to talk about is the one we most need to.

For countless generations, religion has been a source of both unity and conflict — one of the most challenging subjects for people to discuss or agree upon. Religious differences have contributed to hostility, division, and even war, from extremist acts carried out in religion's name to the conflicts still unfolding today where faith, politics, and territory collide.

This book was written to change the conversation. To inspire dialogue instead of hostility. To hold religious institutions accountable. To empower women. And to introduce something new: an interfaith place of worship built for youth and young adults — where people of different traditions interact, cooperate, and belong.

"This is not a book written to have been written. It is a book written to be read — and argued with, and acted on."
Inside the Book

Four commitments, one purpose.

Meaningful Conversation

Opening honest dialogue about faith — inclusive, fact-based, and grounded in critical thinking rather than inherited hostility.

Accountability

Asking religious institutions the questions they have avoided — and making the case that accountability strengthens faith rather than threatens it.

Empowering Women

Restoring women's voices to conversations and communities of faith where they have too often been silenced.

An Interfaith Home

A vision for a shared place of worship for youth and young adults — where different traditions cooperate rather than compete.

Why Now

The pews are emptying. The questions aren't going away.

0%
of U.S. adults attended religious services weekly, two decades ago
0%
attend weekly or nearly every week today — a historic low
0%+
of Americans now report they seldom or never attend religious services

A generation is walking away from religious institutions — but not from the search for meaning. Religious 9/11 speaks directly to them: to the young adults, the women, and the questioners looking for a faith conversation that welcomes them instead of turning them away.

The Author

Pharaoh

Pharaoh writes at the intersection of faith, accountability, and belonging. Religious 9/11 is the product of years spent asking why the institutions built to unite us so often divide us — and what a more honest, more inclusive spiritual life could look like.

His mission is simple to say and hard to do: promote greater religious harmony, understanding, and acceptance — starting with the generation the church is losing.
