On Vikings (1)
The picture of the Vikings drawn today is of course dominated by their sworn enemies the Christians and their priests: barbaric, aggressive raiders, who plunder and rape.
These accusations are of course heavily distorted in disadvantage of the European people.
What if I tell you that the Vikings were some kind of navy forces of the Teutons, who were pushed too far by the Christian intruders?
Their first recorded raid on a monastery was done in 793 on Lindisfarne/England, many years after big parts of Europe succumbed to the aggressors. The Vikings targeted monasteries before all other targets, as they were valuable economic targets, which destruction lead to significant losses to the enemy.
The tales of rape is most likely also just Christian lies: many noble European women were tricked into monastery service, in order to gain influence for their families. There their blood was not available to the European people anymore. The Vikings took them home.
