Church of England Tells Clergy to Censor “Problematic” Christmas Carols Mentioning Jesus

The Church of England is now instructing clergy to remove “problematic words” in Christmas carols which imply that Jesus Christ is the “true Messiah” because some people might be “offended.”

In an email sent to Birmingham diocese clergy, obtained by The Daily Mail, it said:

“Try to use language that won’t add further confusion or tension or take away anything from the good news of the Nativity.”

That’s right, England is past the point of no return.

A Vicar said the Church of England has “really lost the plot” adding that Russian leader Vladimir Putin “doesn’t order Orthodox churches to censor carols at Christmas.”

Canon Chris Sugden, a former member of the General Synod and executive secretary of the Anglican Mainstream group, said traditional songs should not be changed because the “Church conforms to every progressive cause.”

“If one was attending a Jewish or Hindu festival, would you expect them to alter the lyrics or alter the liturgy because there are some who might find them difficult? Who are the people they think are going to object to this?” Sugden asked.

Unsurprisingly, the censorship was also ripped by angry X users:

|”People who attend Christmas carols… will expect to have them sung properly. If the Church cedes the line on this, what else?” Sugden asked.

“My advice to clergy is sing loud and proud. We have a great heritage of hymns in this Christian nation and any clergy who don’t like what the Church has to offer needs to think whether they are in the right role,” said Sam Margrave, a General Synod lay member.
