Most resurrections that supposedly occurred in ancient times occurred in existing religions. The resurrection of Jesus was different in that it resulted in the new religion of Christianity.
According to the bible, Judas and Peter were two different people that both betrayed Jesus, fulfilling the prophecy that Jesus would be denied.

Jesus Christ did not bring Religion, He brought the word of God. It was after he departed the people felt it was right to follow after him by introducing religion.
pale jesus was trying to say be born again spritly Jesus was a devout Jewish and have no plans of starting a new religion (read Matthew 5:16-18 & Luke 16;17. It was Paul who started a new religion now called Christianity.
Because He came to Earth to change the Jews' way of thinking about their religion and it started off a new religion, Christ-ianity.
No. Jesus saw himself in the prophecies and archetypes of the Old Testament. He came to fulfill the law and free the people from the "curse" of estrangement from God. This never was a new religion, and the early Christians certainly did not consider it a new religion. Christianity was called, "The Way" and was ultimately believed to be completion of the Jewish scriptures and religion. However, the Jewish leaders who did not follow "The Way" felt it was a blasphemous cult and tried to kill or imprison all the members. They also used Rome's tolerance of Jews to turn Rome against Christians, stating that Christianity was not a part of Judaism. That was the point at which it became a "separate" religion. However, it was never meant to be a new or different religion. It was simply universalized, and freed from certain constraints by Jesus. That did not go over well.
Yes, it is true that Jesus Christ founded a new and different religion from Judaism. He did this when He told Peter "You are Peter, and on this rock I will build my Church, and the powers of hell shall not prevail against it." Matthew ( chapter 16 verse 18) Jesus appointed Peter the first Pope of the Catholic Church. Ever since, the Pope has been the earthly head of the Catholic Church. The Pope is the Vicar of Christ. We are all called to follow Christ daily, by living out our Catholic Faith that Jesus gave us.

Some say that Jesus was just a wandering holy man who simply wanted to reform Judaism. In this case, probably not.Some say that the Jesus of Paul was a spiritual Christ in heaven, and that the gospel Jesus was a literary invention based on the original, spiritual Jesus. The Epistle to the Hebrews supports this hypothesis. In which case, it is based upon a myth, and not a real person.Some say that Jesus was the Son of God and that the new religion of Christianity was his mission. In which case, yes, he wanted this new religion to be based around him and the Good News of the Gospels that he brought.
over 2 billion people believe jesus as their savior. Thats an accomplishment. To confirm or establish a new religion. In simple words
Christianity is a religion based on the teachings of Jesus, as recorded in the New Testament.
