<be me
<talking with my uncle in his office
<he is talking about some magazine someone gave him where they talk about evolution
<he doesn't believe in evolution and thinks nobody who believes in god believes in that "weird" Darwin's Theory
<i try to explain to him what darwin's theory is and how, from a certain religious point of view you can belive in both things.
<i read a lot and i understand Darwin's Theory well but i couldnt explain her nothing. i just started to throw almost incoherent sentences out of my mouth like i always do and he just finished listening me out of pity.

Slow down. Think about what you want to say before you say it. Don't be afraid to pause, mid sentence even. Pauses are never as long or awkward for the listener as they seem to you. Try to repeat back what the other person just said before pivoting and then stating your case. Practice by doing.

I'm in the same boat op, I think I can comprehend a concept but can't explain articulate it verbally, maybe its just the way my brain is.

Stop using language

if you can't communicate an idea then you can't really defend the assertion that you understand it, now can you? study up kiddo

It seems condescending, but explain a concept as you would to a kid.

Not only does it work, if it works well enough people will actually thank you and appreciate that you broadened their world a little bit.
