What if The Vikings did not convert to Christianity?

[Nietzsche]

Is vikings only accepted Christianity because we fought better than the ancestors and it made them think twice.
They invaded Briton relentlessly and chop chop all the way.
After the romans was like last thing we needed , know what a mean , primitive explorer raider type that just plundered first bit of land they dropped on.
Is all old history none of it matters now .
The will to fight is in my DNA now tho which is a problem

When Charlemagne decided to make an example of the Saxons who resisted his incursion into their lands, they cut down Donnar's Oak and then prepared to burn them at the stake. The priest asked each man "What do you believe?" The implication being that if they answered "Jesus" they would have their throats slit and be spared burning to death. At least one of the Saxons replied "I believe in my own strength, and nothing else".

This was the beginning of the centuries-long struggle between the White Christ and Red Thor. The Great Heathen Army, however, was motivated by a more personal loss. Ivar the Boneless, Sigurd Snake-in-the-Eye, Halfdan Hvitserk and Bjorn Ironside. Their father was Ragnar Lodbrok, who had been killed by Ælla the King of Northumbria and thrown into a pit of snakes. Ælla brought down their wrath all on his own. That he expected anything less just means he wasn't fit to rule to begin with.

The Saxons invaded Britain. Your trying to mix apples and oranges here. Also, the 'Celts', were some of the earliest Xians in Europe, especially the Irish. So, not really sure what your trying to argue, here.

A Bretton Briton no Saxon there DNA red on map , this pre xian history

Therefore? You know that a 'Bretton Briton', is different from a Saxon, right? And you know that the Saxons invaded Britain?

So, what was your point, in your response. The post you were responding to, was referring to Saxons.

Point is the dna of the builders of Stonehenge was of the Britons , not Saxons or Celts .
So despite all invaders I'm still standing up )

Great...that's what I was wondering; however, the post you were /agreeing/?/ with or whatever, was pro-Saxon. Hence my asking you what was the meaning you were trying to convey.

Yeah , is old folk tales of snakes , was just the vast numbers to make a pit and they would soon die kept that way .
Very rare in UK nowadays probably answers why
All history a bit to late to change , all I know by accident some DNA from the settlers of the ice age still exists in few concentrated pockets of UK mostly round north west .

There's no real definition for how many snakes constitutes a "snake pit". You just need enough to **** off when you toss someone in. Not to mention there were far more snakes around when people did a lot of farming. Lots of crops, lots of mice, lots of snakes.

Still Ælla was Anglo Saxon is not my dna .

Saxons, Angles, Jutes and Frisians came to Britain ages ago. They've been there for a few thousand years. They're as native to their land as the French, Italians, Spaniards and such are.

To my knowledge, Christianity was more or less an uncontested naval power in the Mediterranean.

From the Umayyad dynasty until the First Crusade Islam was the naval power.

They would have converted earlier or later, because norse paganism was not a united religion and people were way too divided as to stand together against central christianity.

When we dive into alternate history we are taking on a very complicated issue. I really respect alternate history writers because it is hard to do. Lets take something I saw on youtube. What if Hitler didn't have his great hatred for Jews? And still took power in Germany. Just that alone would would be a complicated subject to tackle. World War II wouldn't be entirely different but certain things would be.

Lets look at something else. Since Japan was part of the Allies in World War One what if they didn't become Fascist and were part of the Allies, at least in some way or entirely, in World War II? That would be complicated too.
