No. Paul makes it clear that flourishing Christian communities already existed in Damascus and Jerusalem at the time of his conversion. There is nothing to suggest that Christianity began in Rome.
* I think the foundation of Christianity was in Jerusalem after Jesus ascended into heaven. Acts chapt 1 says there were about 100 believers meeting together for prayer. Then when the Holy Spirit came on the day of Pentecost Peter preached the gospel and over 3000 believed. This is the beginning of Christianity.
