Where you live matters: there's only one MIT. And there's only one Hollywood and only one Silicon Valley. This isn't a coincidence: for whatever you're doing, there's usually only one place where the top people go. You should go there. Don't settle for anywhere else. Meeting my heroes and learning from them gave me a huge advantage. Your heroes are part of your circle too - follow them.

I want to differentiate it from the stereotypical, sensationalized view that we see of the religion.

It's scary to think that normal teenagers are tempted to copy them.
