We don't know. It is difficult to understand the beliefs of a culture until they learn how to write, and it appears all cultures have religion by the time they can write.

Saying that pagan religion was the first religion is unhelpful because "pagan" simply means non-Christian. It doesn't define a certain belief. Of course religion before Christianity is going to be non-Christian.

We make guesses that early religions revolved around natural processes by looking at the cultures we do know about and our understanding of how culture tends to develop. Its important to remember, however, that we do not know for a fact what early people worshipped, much less how they did it. We can, at best, theorise.

There is no credible academic evidence supporting the idea of an ancient European cult dominated by a goddess.

Organized religions shared by large numbers of people over significant geographical areas are a comparatively late development in human history. However, isolated clans and tribes in the Neolithic period would possibly have practiced some form of animism, and scholars believe that early man also worshipped an Earth Mother figure.

Organized religion came about the same time that civilization came to be. In other words, as we moved out of the hunter-gatherer phase and into an agricultural driven semi-nomadic existence. Judaism is probably the oldest "modern" religion dating back at least two thousand years B.C. As to which is actually the oldest or first religion would largely be a matter of opinion and belief at this point as there is no hard evidence defining it.

Grog of the Cave Bear Clan was the first to institute a religion based on a higher power and belief of an afterlife in the Year 58,563 BC.

This coincides with the first evidence of ceremonial burials among homo sapien and most anthropoligists believe this was man's first time that the belief of an afterlife occurred.

Religion came about as soon as mankind evolved far enough to have questions about the beginning of life, where the moon came from, etc. Some great power was the easiest answer; be it a bear, a tree, a mother, the moon, or the sun. Religion and the concept of God, gods, and goddesses, has evolved to answer the ever changing and more difficult questions we develop.

Define religion. Cavemen worshipped the animals that they hunted and lived beside. Pagans worshipped the earth long before Judaism or Christianity was created.

Hinduism is the oldest existing religion in the world.

Judaism is the oldest monotheistic religion in the world.

Archeaology has unearthed documents showing that various pantheistic and polytheistic religions existed prior to Hinduism or Judaism.

We honestly don't know. It appears that religion precedes the formation of states and the invention of writing, so there are no written sources of information about ancient religions. All we have to go on are ancient art (such as cave paintings) and burial sites...
