That's one confronting way to view the September-11 terror attacks on the USA. Brendan Malone reflects on one of the most momentous days in modern world history, when calculated aeroplane hijackings on American soil ushered in a new era of suspicion and division. He recalls the immediate shock, the loss of national innocence, and the lasting fear, uncertainty and mistrust.

The media commentator suggests 9/11 in many ways lead to today's political landscape, the rise of meta-narrative conspiracy theories, new atheism, and ongoing instability in the Middle East, to which, he says, the best response is prayerful discernment.
