Brennu-Njáls Saga, part 10.

Earl Hákon: "argl."

Ólafur Tryggvason: "I get Norway? Sweet! Hey guys you're so Christian now!"

Þangbrandur: "Hey, Hallur, can I baptise you now so angel Michael will like you?"

Hallur: "Huh? Who's that?"

Þangbrandur: "Hell's angel."

Hallur: "Oh. Want my family too?"

101.

Þangbrandur: "Splash splish splosh wherever I go everyone ends up a Christian or dead!"

Galdra-Héðinn: "Er, what about I open the earth under your feet?"

Þangbrandur: "...shame about the horse but it was either me or him, THANK YOU GOD."

102.

Þangbrandur's still killing everyone who doesn't see things his way but this is a trad. viking behaviour pattern so no one sees Christianity as a particularly gruesome faith. Njáll in fact likes the idea very much, but remembering how many fines he's had to pay, a religion that lists forgiveness as the ultimate virtue must sound appealing. But not everyone's so convinced.

Steinunn: "Thor nailed that Christ on a piece of wood anyway."

Þangbrandur: "Well fuck you too!"

103.

Gestur: "Dunno man about this Christ of yours."

Þangbrandur: "I'll prove it! Hey there, berserker, you decide this for us!"

Berserker: "rraaaaaaaa"

So Gestur loses the argument and then he and Þangbrandur brothersomely chop-chop the berserker to bits.

104.

Þangbrandur: "Baaawww Ólafur Icelanders dun wanna!"

Òlafur: "KILL 'EM -"

Gissur: "Nnnnnaaaah just send me there instead, that Þangbrandur's bloody useless anyway."

105.

Hallur: "...so you see we're sort of half and half over this matter and because no one really wants the responsibility of this we decided you're going to decide which religion this whole country is going to follow forever after this, Þorgeir. We all trust you, don't let us down or cause a horrible war with the decision because then people would die and that would be all your fault. Hokay, which one's it going to be then?"

Þorgeir: "...I need to lie down..."
