passover

passover: to pass over critical portions of a 'holy' book because (a) it is hard to read, (b) it is hard to understand, (c) i'm bored, or (d) i'm tired. 

then, i can pretend that i read it, 
and i can pretend to believe the stuff that 

someone else who pretends to have read it 

tells me is in it...

uh... based upon his divine interpretation. 

it is similar to flying in an airplane ((insomuch as one can pass over the cities, the gouging of the earth, the pollution, and the violence without really paying any attention to it...)) and then believing the foxy newscastmakers.
