Paul created the Jesus character to sell his idea about resurrection and eternal life. Everything people knew about Jesus they got from Paul. The Gospel writers developed the Jesus character and showed why he was worthy of being worshiped. Since life sucked at that time it was easy to gain converts, especially once they dropped the circumcision and communism requirements. It wasn't a peer pressure religion and there was no expensive rituals or pilgrimages. It was a religion for the common poor man that taught obedience to the status quo.
I suspect that if there was a Paul, he made up alot of stories about "Paul" as well.
