Proof that Jon Gosselin is trying to better himself: Fellow TLC star and rabbi to the stars Shmuley Boteach will vouch for him, after Gosselin visited a synagogue to get some advice. No, Jon isn't converting—the New York synagogue was playing host to a values panel starring Boteach, among others, and they instilled Jon with some sorely needed wisdom on how to teach his kids values.
"Cory told him he needed to be a shining example of righteous behavior, Dr. Oz told him he needs to respect other people, and Elie said he needed to make sure he didn't get carried away with fame," Boteach tells the Post, adding, "My reading of Jon is that he's got a core decency. There's a desire in him to do the right thing." (More Rabbi Shmuley Boteach stories.)
