Do academics not realize how hard this {censored} makes people laugh when they put it in documentaries, or do they do it expressly to {censored} with people and make them wonder just that?

Members Caulk Rocket Posted February 13, 2012 Members Share Posted February 13, 2012 The rape and pillage myths were spread by the churches. Christianty wiped out much of the culture at the time. Surviving accounts of Viking activity were almost exclusively written by churchmen. These include monastic chronicles, such as the Anglo-Saxon Chronicle and similar Frankish and Irish Annals, which outline broadly what happened, at what date. There are also sources of a more directly religious nature, such as the much-quoted letters of Alcuin, and Wulfstan's famous 'Sermon of the Wolf', both of which chose to interpret the Viking raids as God's punishment on the Anglo-Saxons for their sins. Even the chronicles reflect the fact that the Vikings often attacked monasteries for their wealth, which created an obvious bias against them, and the hostile tone of these contemporary accounts has done much to create the popular image of Viking atrocities. However, modern historians have noted that the same sources show Christian rulers behaving equally unpleasantly, but without being condemned on religious grounds.http://www.bbc.co.uk/history/ancient/vikings/evidence_01.shtml Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Christianty wiped out much of the culture at the time. Yeah, unfortunately Christians also wiped out pretty much all northern European literature and myth. So much history and legend all went up in bonfires. That's why no-one knows anything about the old pantheons aside from the fragmentary legends of the Norse.
