Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton is facing criticism after she joked that black Americans “look alike.”

Clinton made the comment after an interviewer asked her what she thought of Cory Booker, a New Jersey senator, saying, “When they go low, we kick ‘em.”

Clinton corrected the interviewer, saying the statement came from Eric Holder, the former attorney general.

The interviewer apologized and Clinton responded jokingly, “I know they all look alike.”

Both Booker and Holder are black men. Her comment was intended as a joke as she had just been discussing “political correctness” and “not being rude and insulting people.

“It’s respecting the diversity that we have in our society,” she said in the interview. “The Democratic Party is a much more diverse political party, attracting people who are African-American, Latino, LGBT … And I don’t think it’s politically correct to say, we value that.

“I don’t want to go around insulting people, painting people with a broad brush,” she said. “That’s childish.” 

The interviewer added after the joke: “Oh, Well done.”

Meanwhile, Twitter users were divided on her comments.

One posted: “I could not imagine the reaction if Trump said this.”

Another, however, posted: “I really wish people would stop taking words out of context.”

Donald Trump Jr. even…

Pastor James MacDonald and Harvest Bible Chapel sued a blog and a radio host in October, alleging they spread false information and caused upwards of 2,000 people to leave the church, according to Christianity Today. 

The defamation civil suit against bloggers Ryan Mahoney and Scott Bryant of The Elephant’s Debt blog and Moody Radio host Julie Roys lists “more than 57 points of disagreement” from the blog, according to Christianity Today. 

Mahoney and Bryant, former church members, posted a series of blogs in 2012 and 2013. They left Harvest Chapel in 2010. 

The suit was filed Oct. 17 and claims Roys works in partnership with Mahoney and Bryant. 

“Our goal was to end their prolonged and divisive effort to undermine the Elder governance of our church and to discredit our primary leaders,” church elders said in a statement to the congregation, according to the website. “We have chosen to accomplish that by filing a civil suit in Cook County.”

Mahoney and Bryant said on their blog they are confident they will win. 

“While the authors of this website would never have chosen to resolve our differences in a litigious manner, we are confident that the legal process will ultimately uphold the values of the first amendment right to freedom of religion, freedom of speech and freedom of the press, all of which are essential to safeguarding the values of the…

Superstar actor Mark Wahlberg recently visited New York City, but instead of going to a Broadway play in his free time, the actor chose to go to church.

In an interview with The Christian Post, Wahlberg said he prefers going to church on a Saturday night, to seeing a Broadway show.

“That’s what it’s all about. You know, for me, it’s just the way I love to start my day, finish my day,” Wahlberg told the Christian news outlet.

“I’ve been very blessed and very fortunate. And it’s because of the focus that I put on my faith and on my family that have allowed me to accomplish so many things. Also, with the failure and disappointment and loss, life is not easy,” he added. 

Wahlberg is preparing for the release of his new film “Instant Family” which tells the story of a couple who decides to foster 3 kids, including one troubled teen, becoming parents overnight.

The films story is based on the real-life events of Sean Anders – the film’s director – and his wife. 

While talking about the film Wahlberg said, “Just like this movie, this couple brings in three beautiful kids. And there is this kind of honeymoon period. And then there’s this very difficult time when reality sets in. But ultimately, they fall madly in love with each other. And they want to fight for these kids.”

He stressed, “There’s nothing more important than faith and family.”

Though “Instant…

A 44-year-old Baptist missionary was shot and killed in the war-torn nation of Cameroon Tuesday, about two weeks after he, his wife and their eight children arrived there.

Charles Wesco was shot in the head while traveling in a region where the military has been fighting separatists, according to Reuters.

His wife, Stephanie Wesco, had posted on Twitter after he was shot, “I’m sharing what is worse than a nightmare. My precious husband was shot in the head on our way to town today. He is fighting for his life. Please pray.”

Hours later, she posted an update, announcing his death. 

“My Precious husband, Charles, is now with the Savior he adored and faithfully served for many years,” she wrote. “His life focus was seeking to cause others to love Jesus and serve him. My prayer is that somehow someway Jesus will be glorified through my Precious Charles’ death and that God will not let his death have been in vain. He is receiving the Martyrs crown from his Lord. My heart is broken. I want to wake up from a horrific nightmare. Please pray for us.”

The Wescos were sent to Cameroon through First Light Baptist Mission in Oshkosh, Wis. His brother, Timothy Wesco, is pastor of Calvary Baptist Church in Elkhart, Ind. He’s also a state representative. 

“He loved the Lord. He loved family,” Timothy Wesco said. “The Lord giveth. The Lord taketh away. Blessed be…

With the midterm elections less than a week away, Nancy Pelosi is making big promises to the LGBT community about the Democratic agenda if they retake the House of Representatives. 

Pelosi recently told the John F. Kennedy School of Government at Harvard that the Equality Act will be one of her top priorities. The Equality Act would add sexual orientation and gender identity to the list of classes protected by the 1964 Civil Rights Act, which already includes race, color, religion, sex, and national origin. The law also bans gender discrimination in shops, healthcare, loans, housing, and jury discrimination.

The most controversial aspect of the bill prevents employers and retailers from withholding services based on the 1993 Religious Freedom Restoration Act. RFRA, introduced by late Massachusetts Senator Ted Kennedy, approved by all but three Senators, and signed by President Bill Clinton, protected religious Americans from government intrusion into their religious practices. 

A recent spate of Supreme Court cases protected not only individuals but also businesses. This summer the Supreme Court ruled in favor of Masterpiece Cakeshop after they were fined for not baking a cake for a same-sex wedding. The court found that the Colorado Civil Rights Commission was hostile to the owner’s religious beliefs. Hobby Lobby won a victory before the court in 2014 it ruled they…
