The origin of Judaism is somewhat lost in history; the worship of Jehova or Yahweh may have started around the 12th century BCE. Interestingly, there used to be a Goddess Asherah who was worshipped along with Yahweh, references to her have been removed from The Bible. Hinduism is even more vague! It probably grew of Vedas around 1500-500 BCE. The remaining religions are more precisely dated: Buddhism is built on the life of the Buddha who lived around 500BCE. Christians trace their faith back to Jesus Christ who (fairly obviously) lived in the early first century AD, the gospels were probably written between 45AD and 140AD. Islam started with the Mohammad's dictation of the Qur'an in the 7th century.
