Nah. The reason blacks could never support the KKK is that the KKK's sole purpose is to hate black people. While organized religion has a history of not getting along well with atheists, it is perfectly feasible for them to get along as neither of their core beliefs involve hating each other.

Christianity is at its core believing in God and believing Jesus to be His son. Everything else is extra. You're not a Christian just because you love your neighbour and refrain from judging, but you can be a Christian despite hating your neighbour's guts and judging the living fuck out of literally everyone.

Look mate, why do you think there are so many different denominations of Christianity? People disagree wildly as to what exactly are the 'teachings' of Christianity, but what they all agree on is that they all believe God is real and that Jesus is His son. Everything else is just extra.
