Well, a girl can dream. Rachel, I wouldn't mind being a guy for a day. Just long enough to see what it feels like to be tall enough to look at the tops of people's heads, and have hair short enough that it dries instantly after a shower. Then I start thinking about hairy legs, men's public bathrooms and having to shave my face everyday, and I'm like... naaahhhhhh.

A little trim every now and then, perhaps...
Hey -- wait a minute! That was only if you were a guy...
...for one day...
Don't bother -- you wouldn't be able to grow a full beard in one day.
( Of course, you wouldn't need a trim, either. )

I'm not a fan of the word "religious". Not sure Jesus was either.
Have you actually met "most Christians"? If not, isn't that a rather broad generalization for one who professes familiarity with philosophy?
I am glad that you know the verse I posted is in the Bible. Did you also know that Jesus, Himself, said it? My point is that, as His followers, we must follow His commands, rather than those of unbelievers who would like us to sit down and shut up. Why? Because of the forgiveness, mercy and love He has bestowed up on us. It drives us to share it with others so that they too can avoid the fate you speak of. Eternal life or death is a choice we must all make. I sincerely pray you choose wisely.
If you would like to meet Him rather than Christians, it is still possible if you read all of the Bible in continuity and context. I would encourage you to do so and let me know whether you still feel as you presently do once you have.

Re theneko (was supposed to quote lol, but I clearly clicked the wrong thing )
understand this, to be truthful there often been times when I've felt like the people least fit in amongst have been Christians, which doesn't say anything against the churches I've been in, they have had great people, it's just I never really fit into the church life, and can often be a struggle. But this true elsewhere, I'm really not always that great and being able to connect well with other people. Anyway I sympathise with you

I confess: I wish I could drop everything (my job, bills, responsibilities) and travel for a year straight. Just stay in a different place each month and explore and learn and meet people. I already know where I'd want to go. I'd love to go with someone, but I think I'd be okay by myself, too, I dunno. And I would want to do this with no kids and while I'm still young.
I know this will not happen, but I daydream.

Oh my goodness, Rachel. I am so there with you. I've thought about doing something like this for years. I hear amazing stories of people who have taken a year off and backpacked through Europe, etc., and admittedly, I'm always a little green with envy. And I totally agree with wanting to only spend a few weeks in one place and then move on in order to see as much as possible. If I could, I'd be on your doorstep tomorrow and we could take off.
I've also always wanted to visit Australia... Just had to throw that out for TinTin in case we all wind up on his door someday.

keep daydreaming! i think a year is a long time to be on the road, but hey, 3 months would be pretty cool, right? you're so right about doing it while you're younger. i hope you take that chance to explore some of your dreams of travel.
one of the travelish things i did was living on a sailboat in the caribbean for 3 1/2 months. i would give almost anything to do that again. : )
