Major Religions (that still exist in some form):
Hinduism - 2000 BC
Judaism - 1500 BC
Zoroaster - 620 BC
Janism - 600 BC
Taoism - 580 BC
Confusious - 550 BC
Buddhism - 524 BC
Christianity - 30 AD
Shinto - 100 AD
Islam - 570 AD
Sikhism - 1530 AD
Baha'u'llah - 1890 AD
These are all approximate dates (especially pre-Christian) and hotly disputed, bnu the chronology is pretty much right. When does a religion start? On the birth of the "holy man"? With his/her first convert? After death? First "church"? See, it can be difficult to pin a tail on such a donkey.
