Kimberly,
America is a melting pot of cultures, traditions and yes, religions too.
That is what makes it so great.
We have our crazies that do awful things, but hey, what country doesn't?
I don't think any religion is "better" than another.
It's all about having good morals and not hurting other people/animals and being an overall good person.
A person of any religion can do that.
