"That event predates all other religions. "

This statement is just wrong. Judaism isn't the oldest religion either.

""This is the oldest sacred text in the world that we know of, dating
back to 3100 B.C.E. The Pyramid Texts are funerary inscriptions from
the early pyramids. This was the first translation of the Pyramid
Texts into English, and this etext is the first time it has appeared
on the Internet."

I think you'll enjoy the Internet Sacred Texts Archive. The main page
is located at sacred-texts.com;

Not the oldest RELIGION, just the oldest written TEXT found.
