There is a reason that traveling is more than an occasional break for people. Traveling can be life changing on a mental level and spiritual level.

Many of us need to get outside of our bubbles. Travelling can help you if your are religious but can also help countless others understand bigotry.

You will find that not all religions are hateful or want to destroy Americans. Yes, there are extremists out there, but there are those people who just want to worship their own god in peace. Many of those people have the same struggles you have. Being exposed to another religion can be an awakening. Don't let fear keep you from understanding another faith.
