denominations more than others? If so, please provide the denomination's name and the issue/s that make it harder for African Americans to accept them.
That's great Aaron. Has nothing to do with my question though.
 
Some denominations had racist doctrine in the past, especially Mormonism. The idea that dark skin is a curse and no African Americas could be priests was an official part of their doctrine.
 
I'm half African American.


The issue that makes it hard would me the complete lack of empirical evidence that theists have put forth for any god, much less the christian one.
 
The same as any other, if they are biggoted, and contrary to the word of God, it is not only blacks that reject it. they are out there, but they are well known and do not need mention but since you asked, Mormons, JW have had doctrine that did not allow blacks until they got called on it.

Amish will not accept blacks as Amish, yet they will help them if they need help. Southern Baptist are known for hiding behind the sheets, etc. but there are also white persons who do not agree with those doctrines and beliefs or ways and do not follow for those reasons as Jesus' way is not about that. It is about love of all.
 
African Americans as a majority believe they are sons and daughters of Zacharias and Elizabeth (i.e. descendants of John the Baptist) who's wife was Magdalene. The idea of the real Judean cohen. In the lodges masons teach exactly this theory. Outside the lodges Christians are given abstract characters (brothers and sisters of Jesus) who were really sons and daughters of Zacharias and Elizabeth.
 
Protestant, since all KKK are Protestants.

Why?
Why do Black People have the same religion as the KKK?
Why have Black People abandoned their Ancestral African Jungle Magic for Christianity?
Why do Black People have different last names than African last names, if they came from Africa originally?
(Slave Trading had alot to do with it)
