I think most of us never had a good understanding. I grew up in the "church" and no one ever said anything meaningful to me philosophically wise about things like this. I took a philosophy course in college but didn't attend half of it because of "college reasons". I feel upset with the science establishment that some of this is so basic once you are exposed to it that it isn't taught in elementary or middle school. Materialism feels like mind control sometimes because it is so insanely wrong and so easily proven false.
