Hi Dragoness, welcome aboard!
I can tell you're somewhat surprised that your simple question is not being well received by moderators. This may be because we're accustomed to those on the side of science already being very familiar with science. As a general rule, those who come here who are unfamiliar with science are creationists or are at least deeply religious.
I'm going to release your thread to the [forum=-1] forum, but I'm going to ask participants to focus on the nature of science and on the distinction between scientific knowledge versus religious knowledge. Another way of how I'm thinking about this thread is that it will attempt to answer the question, "What is science, and how is it different from religion?"

You're not scatterbrained, but is it really possible that someone with 3 kids under 5 could have time for the Internet?

A Suggestion
Please let those so inclined dig their own holes. No need to climb in with them.
