Anonymous Coward User ID: 14426697 United States 04/30/2012 08:21 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | The oldest organized religion in the world is Hinduism, which began in 1,500 BC If we put aside organized religion, the oldest form of worship is Paganism, from which Wicca and other forms of Earth reverence were born. Mother Earth was worshipped as a Goddess as far back as Paleolithic times (about 30,000 years ago). Modern paganism is based on the Celtic religion, which had its origin about 1000 BCE in what is now modern Slovakia. Ironically, the religion that is now known as Celtic did not arrive in Britain until 200 BCE, but instead expanded across Europe first. The youngest of the world’s independent religions, the Faith founded by Bahá’u.. started in the 1800's |

God resides IN YOUR MIND. You can't even move your little finger without God. In all humans with a normal mind who carry out moral living, there is an actual fragment of the mind of God. NOBODY can intercede between YOU and your God mind. NOBODY yet you are not taught that. |

But you people cant see someone praying to the earth,trees,sky as a religon can you Paganism is a really broad definition. Atheists are included in it, even though it isn't even a religion. Basically everyone who is not a follower of one of the 3 monotheistic desert religions are considered pagans by the followers of said religions. But whether certain nature reverations or spiritual ancestor worship can be considered a religion and thus can be most likely classed as the first religion (imho yes) that still doesn't really answer which one was first... But both predate written history substantially (whether there was belief in gods or not back then is unknown, although it is known that the Sumerians had a polytheistic organized religion from at least when they were able to write ~3500 BC) |

Moses wasnt a jewish, nor was Abraham, Isaac, Jacob or even Judah. Who did all these people marry? Jacob married the daughter of Laban (in fact more than one). Laban means "white" and in some countries it means milk or creme. The people who lived in those lands in those days were WHITE PEOPLE and the religion of the Old Testament is the religion of WHITE PEOPLE. Todays jewish people dont even follow the Bible and created the Talmud. I really think you ought to learn that rather than regurgitate the same old BS. |

Before there were too many words to bind us, the division between waking consciousness and the dream state (including the after-life/ancestors) was vary thin and certain people had the ability to work with the other side. If you consider Scientology a religion, it would be the newest...Mormonism, Christian Science, Unitarianism and Shakerism (now defunct due to absurd non-procreation rules) are new American religions. |
