This is a really weird thread. As history it is mildly interesting butt what is the point of comparing Caligula to Christ? I wasn't comparing Caligula to Christ. I was comparing Caligula's behaviours to Christian behaviours. The subject of this thread is Caligula's insanity. In my opinion a person should only be considered crazy if diagnosed as such, by psychological professionals. Psychology as a science did not exist in Caligula's time, and all the author of the article in the OP did was list behaviours they considered weird. All I did was compare it to Christian behaviours I consider weird. It's possible that Caligula was crazy, but just listing a few quirks and horrible deeds which Caligula may or may not have committed is not enough to establish his craziness. At least that's my opinion. Then why did the Romans dump him? He could have gone on for twenty years like Tiberius did, if he were only evil and not crazy.
