At least they acknowledge that Hinduism is the oldest.

 

How has the geography of religion evolved over the centuries, and

where has it sparked wars? Our map gives us a brief history of the

world's most well-known religions: Christianity, Islam, Hinduism,

Buddhism, and Judaism. Selected periods of inter-religious bloodshed

are also highlighted. Want to see 5,000 years of religion in 90

"The eyes of the whole world are now turned towards this land of

India for spiritual food; and India has to provide it for all the

races. Here alone is the best ideal for mankind; and western scholars

are now striving to understand this ideal which is enshrined in our

Sanskrit literature and philosophy, and which has been the

characteristic of India all through the ages." -- Swami Vivekananda
