How could Paul have become an Apostle when he did not meet the criteria of having been with Jesus from the beginning of his ministry until his death and resurrection like Matthias was?

Jesus had twelve disciples/ apostles who were the original men who traveled and was taught by Jesus. These men had a large part in Jesus' ministry and were to carry on his teachings, which they did. Matthias was also a disciple of Jesus during this time and was counted as one of the original apostles when he was confirmed in the Book of Acts. Later we see a few other men in the New Testament who are called apostles, Paul being one of them. They indeed were apostles but were not of the group who were with Jesus in His ministry on earth. Barnabas and James, the Lord's brother were both called apostles.

When did Christianity begin one answer?
I'm sorry, but this depends upon what you mean by "begin". Jesus was born in 3 AD, according to most scholars today, so that could be the beginning. He began his ministry at age 30, or AD 33, if that is the start of Christianity. His ministry lasted 3 years, so his crucifixion and resurrection occurred in AD 36, so that also would be a good start date.
