As a single religion zorastrian would be the older one, as it's parent belief hinduism is much older & one of the sects of it (very old itself) went on to become Zorastrianism.

I believe Hinduism is one of the oldest organized religions.  Organized in the definitive sense, as I think there are older religions that weren't as organized - Hinduism might've been the first collective religion on a big scale, but I'm not sure.

Judaism has to be one of the oldest. It seems to be an offshoot of an earlier monotheistic religion, of which Melchizadek was the last priest

Fear is the oldest religion. Followed by hate.
