Dr. Ben Carson, the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development secretary during the Trump administration, recently slammed the “woke” church people responsible for altering the lyrics to the classic Christmas song, “God Rest Yet Ye Merry Gentlemen,” to include stanzas acknowledging the “queer” community and “questioning” the spirit of the holiday.
During a conversation with Fox News, Carson was pressed on the alternative lyrics and song title for “God Rest You Queer and Questioning.”
Carson then recalled a National Prayer Breakfast from 1997, where he sounded off warnings of political correctness seeping into timeless Christmas fare.
“[I said that] ‘if we continued along that pathway, it was going to destroy our nation.’ It has continued to get worse. Now it’s morphed into wokeness,” said Carson.
