Tower of babel came first because it is what divided the nations. Thus creating Hinduism and Judaism in a sense of languages. It was built in an attempt to reach God's temple.

Hinduism is older than what? The Tower of Babel was built just after the Great Flood and from this beginning of the different languages came the different tribes and tongues of the world.
How did you date when the Tower of Babel was built?

Your question doesn't make any sense. The tower of Babel came after the great flood. Noah, was a servant of God.
It isn't said in the Bible or by Christians that there were not any religious practices prior to Judaism. In fact, God tells those that know him to not follow those that are idol worshipers and this is where and why Judaism is brought in and why God establishes his people, the Jews.

What does hinduism have to do with Judaism and the tower of Babel? I don't pay no mind to false religions.

I am very much not a Christian, but if you read the bible, you can see that Judaism was AFTER the tower of Babel:-). There was a "knowledge of God" that was lost when people went to pray to intermediaries, which became Idol worship, and then Abraham came to the realization that there was only one God.. maybe a thousand years after the tower, I think?

Hinduism could be 3000 years old, but that would be stretching it. Both Animism and Shamanism are in the 15 to 35 thousand year range. The Hebrews are about the same dating as the Hindus.

The oldest text of Hinduism dates to about the same time as the Torah and the Torah was not the start of Judaism, it was the covenant made with Abraham, more specifically with Israel.

The ancients who gave us the story of the Tower of Babel did not know how languages came about. They made up this myth to give a simple explanation to people who did not have the scientific evidence to know better.
