Organised religions usually appear 100s of years after the life of the enlightened Master (not that Jesus was definiteley enlightened) because some people start drawing power and advantage from the wisdom of the -ism's origin. Every -ism is only an institutionalised, rather dead, knowledgeable copy of the original and tries to prevent searchers to find their individual way, just as Gautama Siddhartha - and many others - did who certainly NEVER followed any -ism.
