These things do happen, and given the artificial selection of religion, such would explain their genesis.
And he could also have eaten some moldy bread, been sleep deprived, dehydrated, ......... Or it could have all been made up for attention/manipulation. Who knows. The fact the people seemed to believe him indicates that he was probably not schizophrenic. Look at all of the others things people believed back then, (some even now) that we now know is crap.
Or perhaps he never said he had a vision.
Edit: Nevermind. Forgot about 2 Corinthians, lol. Still, that doesn't seem related to the vision in Acts.
