Editing Caracalla (section)

=== Religious politics ===
In the religious sphere Caracalla was tolerant. In fact, Caracalla displayed meticulous respect for all the gods and often visited the main sanctuaries and oracles. He was passionate about astrology, so he sometimes made decisions and assigned assignments based on dates and zodiac signs. He built great new temples in Rome for Isis and Serapis. He did not engage in persecution against Christians or Jews. In this period, new oriental cults such as Sol Invictus and Mithraism spread to Rome, brought by the troops who were under his command.
