No doubt they steal a hog from a nearby farm, and after a ritual
sacrifice to the mother goddess, they have plenty of ham.

Indeed, they all listen to Parg's wimminfirster bullshit because, well,
that's just grandma.

Is that what happened to the Vikings?  Someone forced them to stop
worshiping Odin and made them become Christians?  Wow!  It would have
taken a tough bunch to pull that off.  Who did it?

Btw, "Pagan" is not a proper noun, as it does not describe one
particular religion, unless you are using your own private dictionary.
I wouldn't be surprised if you were, since you obviously use your own
private map, which tells you that Manitoba is in Africa. _Standardized_
things don't really appeal to you, do they?  Have you a private metric
system as well?  How many centimeters are in your private meter?
