I don't know if there is such a list--would be interesting to find out.
But it has been an accepted fact, in this country, that Islam/Muslim is a religion.
You can punish/prosecute the crimes of those who practice this religion, but you cannot prosecute the religion, based on the 1st Amendment.

I guess the Davidian religion wasn't one of our government's recognized religions but I'm not sure what they did that was that much of a threat to anyone.
