So being an atheist, one of the most significant things that I struggling with is that since I also have a strong love for learning about different cultures, people, and countries, and I do not believe in any religous/spiritual/supernatural things without evidence, how do I reconcile these two concepts. Since religion makes up a significant part of pretty much every culture and country around the world, I feel that this has affected my deep interest in learning about other cultures and has almost taken away some of my interest in culture and histories. Does anyone feel the same way? I don't know how else to atriculate this struggle. Feedback would be much appreciated.

I'm not sure what your issue is. I can look at a culture or country and say see both interesting, fantastic, and amazing and also accept that it has flaws like religion in it's foundation. Humanity, consciousness and social dynamics are complex aspects of reality and so contradictions are easily part of the mix. There are too many variables to assume an easily identifiable norm.
