Confucianism is just about all ethics and morality. It's more a code of laws for life than a religion.
The jokes that start out, "Confucius say..." are satire of all the different little things that make the the complex system for morals, social behavior, political believes, and the philosophy of Confucianism.
The main idea behind Confucianism is that humans can be taught to be better and perhaps eventually perfect through stringent dedication to Confucianism, even giving their life to uphold the practices.

What were the religion organizations of Confucianism?
There are no real "religious organizations" connected with Confucianism because it is more of an acceptance of the philosophical teachings of Confucius than any type of religion.

But that is a far cry from a "religion"...There are organizations that help to spread these teachings--but since your question was related to spirituality and religion: I'll take my leave and allow you to decide if you wish to pursue the matter at all. If you do: wikipedia.
