Manson and Jones made up their own "religions" and were not representing any organized religion. I thought the subject was the myth of moderate Islam and that a comparison of fundamentalists of any religion clearly demonstrates that fundamentalist Muslims are quick to shed blood per instructions from the Koran, while fundamentalist Jews and Christians are not so inclined per instructions from the Bible. It seems to muddy the discussion to bring in psycho cult leaders who made up their own rules/religions unless you are comparing them to Mohammed who did just that.

Religion by it nature is organized, false or not.

Did you ever read about The Spanish Inquisition?

I was pointing that fact out but for some reason you didn't get it.
