Some believe it to be Hinduism - circa 4,000 to 10,000 BC.

While Hinduism is the first major religion, there is a historical debate as to whether Judaism or Zoroastrianism is the first monotheistic religion. The debate centers both over age (since Zoroastrianism was founded after Judean Kingdoms existed but before the Babylonian Exile when much of Jewish belief was documented) and over the definition of monotheism (since the powers of the Zoroastrian demon "Angra Mainyu" may be sufficient for Zoroastrianism to be considered a henotheism, not a monotheism).

AnswerNo. The prophet Zoroaster was the founder of that religion. He lived during the 6th century B.C. The jewish religion existed almost a thousand years previous to this. AnswerScholars such as Mary Boyce (Zoroastrians: Their Religious Beliefs and Practices) say that Zoroastrianism developed in the Indo-Iranian culture of southern Russia. Boyce says that linguistics and content mean that a reasoned conjecture is that Zoroaster lived around 1700 to 1500 BCE, while others place him somewhat earlier. However, Zoroastrianism did not come to the attention of the wider world until contact with the Jews, during the Babylonian Exile. Because of this, it became accepted wisdom that Zoroastrianism was only founded shortly before the Exile, a view now largely discredited among scholars. However, the sister religion, Hinduism, is at least as old as Zoroastrianism. Surviving animistic and shamanistic religions are probably even older than either Zoroastrianism or Hinduism.

No. Sanaya Irani is a Zoroastrian (the religion is commonly called "Parsi" in India). This is a distinct religion from both Hinduism and Islam. As for why she is not Muslim, she was born to Zoroastrian parents and was never convinced that Islam is the correct religion.

1 answer


it is the oldest religion still in use today so yes it was recorded since close to to 1000 b.c

Answer:

Present thinking is that Hinduism grew from prehistoric religion in India in the late Neolithic in the early Harappan period (5500-2600 BCE). Modern Hinduism developed from the Vedas, the oldest of which is the Rigveda (1700-1100 BCE).

It is difficult to determine if Zoroastrianism, Judaism or Hinduism would be the oldest existing religion presently practiced.

Paganism. But technically I could also say things like Samaritan-ism, Zoroastrianism, Druze, Hinduism, religions which are mainly ethnic in nature and which don't exist in any large amounts in western Europe. Although, Hinduism may be an exception to that, but compared to the percentage of the other religions, I doubt Hinduism make s much of a splash in Western Europe.

Some scholars, including Mary Boyce, Professor Emerita of Iranian Studies at University of London, conclude that Zoroastrianism began in southern Russia, the area from the Iranian people of today emigrated. Others say that Zoroastrianism may have originated in central Asia, perhaps in Afghanistan. I find the southern Russia origin more persuasive, not only because the Iranian people originated there, and therefore could have brought the religion with them into eastern Iran, but because of similarities between Zoroastrianism and Hinduism, which could also have originated in southern Russia. Zoroastrianism did not reach the Medes and Persians of western Iran until around the eighth century BCE, leading some to believe that the religion originated there.
