Answer 1

Hinduism goes back to more than 10,000 years.

An archaeological site, dating back to 7500 BC and older than hitherto oldest known human civilisations including those found in the Valley of Sumer, Harappa and Egypt, was discovered by a team of Indian marine archaeologists in the Gulf of Cambay off Gujarat coast.

“On the same day that Krishna departed from the earth the powerful dark-bodied Kali Age descended. The oceans rose and submerged the whole of Dwaraka. “

- Vishnu Purana - volume 2, p. 7

While working for British gas in the Gulf of Cambay region, a few years ago, the scientists of the NIOT, were stunned to see images of objects and things, completely alien to the marine domain. Immediately a team swung into action and samples were collected and sent for analysis and dating .

Samples collected include artefacts, wood pieces, pottery materials, hearth pieces, animal bones. They ere sent to Manipur University, Oxford University, London, Institute of Earth Sciences, Hanover, Germany for analysis and dating. The results were astonishing. It was found beyond doubt that the samples belonged to a period varying from 7800 to 3000 years (BP) Before Present !

The recently discovered bridge currently named as Adam's Bridge made of chain of shoals, c.18 mi (30 km) long, in the Palk Strait between India and Sri Lanka, reveals a mystery behind it. The bridge's unique curvature and composition by age reveals that it is man made. The legends as well as Archeological studies reveal that the first signs of human inhabitants in Sri Lanka date back to the a primitive age, about 17,50,000 years ago and the bridge's age is also almost equivalent. This information is a crucial aspect for an insight into the mysterious legend called Ramayana, which was supposed to have taken place in tretha yuga (more than 17,00,000 years ago). In this epic, there is a mentioning about a bridge, which was built between Rameshwaram (India) and Srilankan coast under the supervision of Rama who is supposed to be the incarnation of the supreme.

If Dwapar has proved to be at least 7000 year old Satyuga and Treta which are older will go even back.

While Abrahmic religions claim the Universe is only 6000 year old , Hindus have never limited the time peripod of universe so short. It is not only most ancient surviving civilization, It is very much aware of this antiquity and continuity throughout the history.

Answer 2

Hinduism (Sanskrit - Sanātana (eternal) Dharma also known as Arya Vaidika (Vedic) Dharma) is a religion or philosophy that originated from the Indian subcontinent and nearby surrounding areas.

The roots of Hinduism date from around 3000–1000 BCE. The earliest evidence for elements of the Hindu faith dates back as far as 3000 BCE.

So, we can assume that other religions originated from Hinduism. Like, christianity, Islam, Buddhism .....

Answer 3

Sorry, but Judaism only goes back to about 1300 BCE (3300 years ago) The Judaic CALENDAR goes back nearly 6000 years, but not the religion. Hinduism, goes back 3500 years (1500 BCE). Zoroastraism only dates to about 600BCE. Funny noone mentions the egyptian (not a big following these days) or oriental (ancestor worship) religions.

There are, of course, far older religions, pre-dating written text, such as animalism, shamanism, and other tribal religions.

Answer 4

Christianity

Answer 5

Sorry, but God's laws predate religion. And only his people carrying his name practice what he has commanded to be.
There are many false religions now that claim to be the first.
But first doesn't make the practice right. God is a living God and he wants his people to worship him in a clean holy way. His way, and since he doesn't change, the laws set down and modified by Jesus are the only valid ways now.
God is love. Vengeance is his. His basic commandments are still valid.

Answer 6

Many nature-based religions were around at that time, and I believe that would have been the approximate time frame for the beginnings of Judaism.

Answer 7

Judaism is NOT the 2nd oldest. There is Zoroastrianism, and many other religion that predate judaism.

And for the guy who said xianity, you have no business even posting here.

Answer 8

There were a couple unofficial religions around. But Hinduism was around back then too.

Answer 9

Judaism. The Hebrew year now is over 5657. Not to mention paganism

Answer 10
