You are ridiculously nit-picking on this. If you hear both sides of this and are reasonable, you cannot believe that the facts support this kind of character assassination. Carson is probably guilty of not knowing that he should antiseptically scrub anything that he has ever thought, believed, or written, ever, even in passing mentioned through authenticity checks conducted by seasoned jot-and-tittlers like yourself. You got me there.
Carson suffers from a lifelong inferior complex and his “I love me” house proves it. I’ve also have hundreds of plagues and certificates from my career in the US military but I never had to have an “I love me wall” in the military or when I got out. My children have them now. I knew men just like Carson in the military. Always trying to impress others with how smart they were. Christians are called to be humble. Pride comes before the fall.
