How can you say that Islam is the first religion ever. Islam has been proven to have been first created by Muhammed in the 632 AC.

Where are the real first religion in the world is the Sanatana Dharma, (not Hinduism as people think), Hinduism is a name that was given by the Western world to make it easier to grasp. Where as the Sanatana Dharma is so full and reach of life and teaching that even to this date no-one can comprehend its magnificant power and beauty.

For those wondering when the Sanatana Dharma is supposed to have begin, it technically has no beginning as we believe in reincarnation and as a result dont quite know, however for those thinking "oh so you might only be a few thousands years old", wrong. Lord Krishna for one was born in 3228 BCE and was a member of the Sanatana Dharma and as per the Kalki Purana and other Purana, Krishna is the 22nd of 24 Avatars of Lord Vishnu. It is said that Lord Rama (an earlier incarnation) was born is the Satya -Yuga.

To put things into realtime for anyone who cant be asked to think, the Satya-yuga lasts 1,728,000 years and ended approximately 2,165,000 years ago.
