In my opinion, thousands of years ago there were some people of high moral quality sitting around talking about what to do with all these people of low moral quality. So the idea was proposed that some invisible presence was there always watching you.
How do you stop people from killing each other? How do you keep people from committing adultery? How do you stop people from lying? The answer is of course God.
I think the idea of God is a good one. I think most people need that moral compass so I don't usually share my opinion on this matter.

Either Abraham, Moses, the Egyptian Pharaoh Akhenaten, or Zarathustra.
It's a tough call since there is debate about when exactly Abraham and Moses lived (regardless of the geneological timeline in the Christian OT). Abraham likely lived around 2000 BC and Moses likely lived sometime between the 15th and 13th centuries B.C.
There is not so much debate about when Akhenaten lived, since the Egyptians kept rather good records, particularly about religion and politics. He reigned mid 14th cen. BC (mid 1350s to mid 1330s BC),
But the one could look even further back to Zarathustra, the prophet of Zarathustraism/Zoroastriansism. But again, there's debate about when exactly he lived - some say its likely around the same period, sometime between the 14th and 13th cen. BC, but others some say anywhere from 600 to 1700 years before Christ and still others say up to 4000 years before Christ. And some claim that Zoroastrianism is the oldest monotheistic religion in the world.

Adam...because he communed with God and was able to see and feel him. Humans have been trying to re-join Him every since. Allah has given us clear instructions on how to do it through the Torah, the Gospels (as originally delivered by Jesus) and the Qu'ran as delivered through Mohamed. The Israelites rejected the teaching of Jesus and the Romans re-wrote the Gospels to consolidate their power so the only "real" instructions are the Torah and the Qu'ran which have never been re-written. Both religions are based on monotheism.

His name was Snorff and he lived approximately 37,000 years ago in the vicinity of what is now known as Iraq. His entire vocabulary consisted of one word: Snorff. He realized that everything he saw was himself seeing. He began pointing at everything he saw and saying "Snorff! Snorff!" Some members of his tribe found this to be so annoying that they killed him with an oval rock. For a few thousand years, his followers wore oval rocks around their necks as a tribute to him. Then God got tired of the joke and wiped them all out.

As far as can be told? Egyptians, with the story of Amon Ra, the one true sun god. Of course, egyptians killed the pharoah who came up with and demanded the new religion be followed... but Egyptians had the idea before Jews did.

God.
For all who judge God fall into darkness, and cannot judge without judging themselves.
Everything consists of God, and God is without flaw. To disbelieve God is to disbelieve yourself.

I give up but I will make a guess anyway. Is it C: Cheeta the Chimp?
