Controversy


Rabbi Gottlieb wrote a book entitled ''Living Up to the Truth'' which purports to offer evidence for the truth of the Torah, Judaism's holiest scripture. This book has attracted criticism from several atheist sources. Two such atheists have written criticisms of his book of varying lengths. Rabbi Gottlieb has prominently featured these commentaries on his websites along with his responses to them. In some cases, Rabbi Gottlieb has made changes to his book in response to mistakes or inaccuracies which were indeed found by the critics.
