I know I'm throwing pearls before swine here, but here are some reasons why I think you guys would like the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints:
members are predominately white (though we aren't exclusionary to any race, not since 1978 anyways)
large emphasis on the importance and sacredness of the family unit
the church encourages traditional gender roles, trad wives
only men can receive the priesthood and be pastors (women can also be ordained to positions of authority, but these are usually over other women)
the churches stance on homosexuality and transexualism will likely never change
in the book of mormon, the good guys are usually describe as white and delightsome, and the bad guys (lamanites) are cursed with dark skin. Though, this isn't always the case. There are instances of the white people falling from grace and the lamanites becoming the obedient ones.
