Gospel of John controversy

The controversy is over the authorship, not the content. Personally, I can’t see that it matters. It’s like positing that the Iliad wasn’t written by Homer, but by another Greek of the same name.

But I take your point - ‘controversy’ is too strong a word. It’s really more of a scholarly dispute.
