<human>: Can you provide a brief overview of the text?

So I was raised in a staunchly Presbyterian family (who did a lot of things right, by the way), church and school. My Father is an extremely intelligent man, whom I've been quietly observing wrestling with his own faith. I was given a very good education - even in science and arts.

I am a 28 year old father of three.

To really boil things down, because I could write a book, I feel like I've just begun (last 2 years or so) really allowing myself to entertain the idea that evolutionary science *isn't evil*. That may sound stupid, but I know there has to be someone out there like me - that knows what it's like to **fear** opening your mind to something like evolutionary theory. Like God is going to reach down and knock you the fuck out. So don't judge me unless you've been there - it's way more fucked up then you think.

So I was reading [this] when I found [this] ... which absolutely blew my mind. It occurred to me I'm like a 5 year old at Disney World; I know *nothing*. I have no idea. I have an innate mistrust of **anything** surrounding evolutionary theory that I am wrestling against. I don't expect to get an education here, but if anyone could give me some cliff notes on current evolutionary science and point me towards resources that can take a browbeaten creationist and teach them about evolution, I'd really appreciate it.
<bot>: I have been, until recently, afraid to even entertain the evolutionary theory due to staunch Presbyterian schools. I know nothing. Teach me about evolution?
