In my opinion, it was Paul who started the religion of Christianity.
Some are happy to credit Jesus with the origin of Christianity because they claim Jesus commissioned Paul on the road to Damascus to take the religion to the Gentiles.
According to The Bible in Acts 9 - the event on the road to Damascus was uncorroborated vision (dream) by Paul, against statements made by Jesus before his 'death on the cross'. "I have not come to abolish the law", "I was only sent to the Jews".
However, this is one of 33,400 unanswered questions on Jesus/Christianity.
It is not because it is too difficult a question to answer but it is uncomfortable for the adherents of the faith.
Another Answer:
Jesus is the 'foundational stone' who brought the Good News (Gospel) of the Coming Kingdom of God, establishing His Church (called the Church of God in New Testament). He appointed Peter the first leader after His Resurrection. It was called "The Way" and latter becamen known as Christianity:
Matthew 16:18New King James Version (NKJV)18 And I also say to you that you are Peter, and on this rock I will build My church, and the gates of Hades shall not prevail against it.
