If you read through it you get the fun of occasionally recognising a name though.

It to name the star map, to navigate and read the season. That method gave birth to connect moral stories to the names so
A. Names were easier to remember
B. Keep attention from listeners
allowing passing desired moral law unto the community.
The moment these stories became 'historical facts' is all went to shit, resulting in a tool to rule the ignorant, a.k.a religion.

God is obviously real. You are trying to salvage or glean some small amount of secularism in a growing religious online population

One if the main advantages of a religion is to reinforce in group out group boundaries.
Lineages help people to know they will be remembered and give a group a common history and common lore known only to that group.

Skipping begats is a brainlet sign, bro. If you find that boring/hard/meaningless then you might want to grab an easier book

I had considered skipping these kinds of chapters, but I decided against it for the fear of missing things. currently reading Job and haven't skipped a single chapter up to this point.
I wouldn't be able to say I have read the entire bible if I skipped things so there's that, I would feel like a casual pleb.
its not 'important' though so do whatever you want.
