Hey so, I was raised in a very sheltered religious environment, I have changed a lot since I became an adult and accepted that I was just gonna have missed some stuff. I have a kid now though and I don't want to be like... a weird caveman who knows nothing about basic ass science stuff when they have questions or are learning these things in school or wherever. Is there an approachable book or resources about science that fundie-raised folks might have missed? I appreciate this is a weird question but I have to imagine I'm not the only person in this position. (TEST EDIT for reasons)
