Our religions date back to the Bronze Age-before science taught us that the reality of the universe doesn't match the stories told by the Bible. Yet we still practice the religions of our ancestors. How and why do we still live with these traditions in the modern age?

Jews, God, and History (Not Necessarily in That Order) is both reverent and irreverent as it explores the big questions asked by all people. As Michael Takiff provokes you to think, he also gets you to laugh. Venturing into rarely explored territory he pulls no punches, challenging audiences to question their assumptions about Jews, God, history, and everything in between.
