Approximate dates are the only possibility, approximately the year after Jesus' death when he was 33 years old. The problem here is that no one can pinpoint his actual birthdate and year. It was approximately 2007 years or so ago, give or take ten years either way. The disciples began their Christian meetings originally in peoples' homes because they were not well-tolerated by the Romans whose kingdom they inhabited. Eventually they built tunnels under the earth (catacombs) in which they celebrated the Eucharist together. (the mass) When Christians were beheaded, crucified or otherwise slaughtered for their faith they were also buried inside the walls of these catacombs. You can still visit the catacombs in Rome today. There are many interesting writings on the walls. Read the Acts of the Apostles in the Bible. This book depicts the beginnings of the church.

The exact year is questionable, not only because you could date it from the time that Jesus started his ministry or from slightly after his death, but also as the events in the New Testament are not consistent with known dates in history and the Gospels were written second or third hand.

This is not mentioning that there is no hard evidence that Jesus actually existed, which makes the start date harder to pinpoint.

There were a bunch of people running around preaching on street corners until 325 CE when Constantine organized things. Islam began in the 600's and cathoicism in 800's.

Adam and Eve,
well I a mormon so I believe my religion started for me the day my spirit was born.

Christians believe their religion extends before the birth of christ. It just wasnt called christianity. They believe the religion started at the creation of the earth.
