Too bad we can't make a pilgrimage from 'Murica

There are no new lands to discover.

And too bad we're thousands of years from ever traveling through space, if we ever make it that far.

Maybe global warming will melt the Antarctic ice sheet and we can discover what’s underneath.

You know that you are allowed to leave the country, right?

The word pilgrimage in the title is rather specific, wouldn't you agree?

A pilgrimage isn't going to a new land. Mecca isn't a new place.

I mean there are lots of countries in the world. I've been to around 30 of them. Spent 3 months or more in Canada, Mexico, Peru, Chile, Argentina, Australia and Spain.

You can pilgrimate all over the place.

I suppose I'm being nostalgic and old school by making a literary reference to a pilgrimage in relation to the Mayflower Pilgrims.

We could colonize the moon and have large portions of our population living comfortably in O'neill cylinders within a few hundred years if we Earthlings ever learned to cooperate with one another and harmonize our goals as a species. Once religion becomes a thing of the past, that'll be one less hurdle to overcoming our divided world.

Give the Orange Fucktard cylinder #1.  It would make the douchebag so happy and he could finally enable Putin to say "we Russkis colonized the moon."

We have lots of sea floor yet to discover/conquer.
