Which came first out of these religions?

Question

I'm not asking for any religious bias here. I'm only looking for facts made in history. Which out of these 5 religions came first and please provide a year? It doesn't have to be right on the dot year but something like 700 AD or 5000BC whichever is right.

Judaism, Norse, Christianity, Hinduism, & Islam.

Answer 1

Not so sure on Norse, however...

Judaism can be documented prior to 2000 BC.

Christianity, roughly 50AD to 100AD, prior to Paul's conversion, the followers of Yshua bar-Ysef were known as 'Followers of the Way'.

Islam, roughly 650AD, with the revelations of Muhammad.

Hinduism has its roots in traditions dating back 10,000 years. Hinduism is the oldest known and currently-practiced religion on the planet.

Answer 2

Hinduism is the oldest with written records going back probably 10K+ years

Probably Judaism and the mythologies of the Norse are around the same age though Judaism's roots are in Zoarastrianism (sp) which is a proto-monotheistic religion. It is hard to give an accurate start date but probably with the code of Moses around 1220BC.

Then came Christianity whose followers believe is the continuation and fulfillment of Judaism. It started with Jesus' ministry around 33AD.

The newest of the five is Islam which is about 1428 years old according to their calendar.

As far as providing accurate dates.... well lets just say only Christianity and Islam's ages can be predicted with any amount of accuracy.

Answer 3

(1)The Western Indologists themselves have recorded that Rk-Veda is "the oldest repository of human knowledge" and Hindu religion was well developed 6000 years back.
(2) From various books on religion it appears that Judaism was almost a contemporary to Hindu religion in Western hemisphere
(3)More or less at the same time in West Asia and many parts of Europe(Germany etc) Paganism(worship of Mitra etc) seems to be prevailing.
(4) Buddhism was wide spread in South and South East Asia in 300 B.C.E. when Alexander a Greek general invaded India(during the rule of Mourya Dynasty as recorded by Chanakya in his works).Alexander left a Governor (Selucus Nicotar) behind him with a few Greek soldiers in what is now called Afganistan.(Khaandaar-Indian Name)--Jainism was slightly after that.
(5) Christianity sometime between 50 to 100.A.D.
(6) Islam --about 600 A.D.
(7) Sikhism-during the Mogul's rule in India

Answer 4

I don't know about Norse and Hinduism, but I know Judaism came first, then Christianity, then Islam.

Christianity is approximately 2000 years old, give or take a couple centuries or decades. And Islam is approximately 1450 years old.

Hope you find your answers.

Answer 5

Any of you who think that the Norse religion came after the christian religions are just sillly. In order for a religion(christianity) to basterdize another religion(any of the pagan beliefs) it had to have come after and then steal and alter methods of worship, and beliefs to suit the new religion. You can't find a date of creation for the Norse religion because it is so much older than any of the others.

Answer 6

That's a hard question to answer. because the roots of two of these religions began with a man named Abraham, who lived between 1996 BC - 1821 BC. Yet all religions are not older then Noah who lived between 2948 BC - 1998 BC. Christianity is a branch from Judaism which began after the death of Jesus Christ around 5 BC - 33 AD

Answer 7

Hinduism - 5000 BC
Jusaism - 2000 BC
Christianity - 1th century
Islam - 6th century
Norce - 13th century

Answer 8

As a Pagan i think that the Gods moved between the particularly some human beings of the international and revealed as lots of their reality as those human beings ought to settle for on the time. it truly is why, as a results of fact the historic checklist makes clean, past to the creation of monotheism human beings respected each and every others gods and customs and the two religious and racial persecution have been particularly uncommon. as quickly as human beings desperate there became in elementary terms one God, their very own, and in elementary terms one reality, their very own, and that this meant there ought to in elementary terms be one Ruling subculture, their very own, faith became little extra effective than a gadget of the ruling classification to maintain their very own ability. whilst the only function of religion is to justify a particular political or economy then it truly is mandatory to create a clean faith any time one needs to create a clean equipment, as Calvin did with the Presbyterians, as Henry VIII did with the Anglicans, as a results of fact the Puritans did whilst they got here to united states of america of america, and as each and every physique is doing to at present.

Answer 9

The question is unanswerable as no one when the Nordic religion became standardized with gods like Thor, Odin, etc...
