Of course, it does. Islam and Christianity are the younger by thousands of years.sankrist was the first written language they say, so im going to so with confidence hinduism predates islam
Of course, it does. Islam and Christianity are the younger by thousands of years.
In mid-2006 archaeologists unearthed a 70,000 year old carved statue of a snake in Botswana. Snakes as religious symbols have been discovered all over southern Africa and may represent a single unifying concept of the earliest form of organized religious practices.
Hinduism is only 20,000 years old at the most.

They date back to about 700,000 years BCEAny idea how old the petroglyphs are ... or cave paintings?
There's a difference in evidence, too, though. There is evidence of old, documented religions.Exactly. There is a differnce between oldest documented religion and how God was on this earth before humans even evolved.

Yeah, but my point was that there is no evidence of the Christian god before Genesis was written. And that was only a couple thousand years ago.Yes. And it is an account of the way they lived back then. Times change and religions change all the time too.

God is only a belief.Does it matter? Religion is only a belief, how do you provide evidence of belief when it's no more than a thought.
So is tyranny. So?See son, "God is like surfing, it takes a while to learn but once you get the hang of it, it becomes a way of life."
Don't pick up on me! Your married remember? Anyway, I had my fun on this thread....
Oh it wasn't a pick up, trust me. I was just curious as to how old you are. Given we have a teenager in High School floating around the board that is far more literate and mature.
You'd think so. The evidence points in a different direction, though.I don't mind... My Wisdom in my age is worth more than any High School student.
Yeah, a lot of people can't wait till they're senile. lmaoSoon, you too will be the future of the world, but untill then 'wait your damn turn'. :smile:
I'm looking forward to hiding my own Easter eggs, buying my own Christmas gifts, and waling up with fresh piece of tail everyday...:lol:though. Yeah, a lot of people can't wait till they're senile. lmao
You may be surprised, but I actually agree with you, Islam is very old. Well, at least the Islamic God, Allah is very old. Originally, Allah was a Hindu Goddess. There is an Upanishad (Hindu Holy Scripture) called Allopanishad, devoted to Allah.
During the time of Mohammed, people in Middle East used to worship all kinds of Gods including Allah. Somehow Allah had migrated from ancient India to Middle East. Mohammed told people that Allah is the only true God. He told them to stop worshipping other Gods and worship only Allah. So Allah clearly predates Mohammed and Islam.
So yes, at least the Islamic God (Allah) is a very old God, a Hindu Goddess. Incidentally, the word ‘Arab’ itself is of Hindu origin. It comes from Sanskrit word ‘Arva’, meaning horse. In the old days, Middle East was famous for its horses.
Hare Allah - Islamic Hindu Vedic Origin - Topix
Some people wrongly believe that Arabs used the word Hindu as a term of contemptuous abuse. Nothing could be further from the truth. The people of pre-Islamic Arabia held Hinduism in great esteem as evidenced from the fact that they would endearingly call their most attractive and favourite daughters as Hinda and Saifi Hindi. The fact that Arabs regarded India as their spiritual and cultural motherland long before the damaging influence of Islam is corroborated by the following poem which mentions each one of the four Vedas by nameThe English translation is in black)
"Aya muwarekal araj yushaiya noha
minar HIND-e
Wa aradakallaha
manyonaifail jikaratun"
