i believe that the Saxon chieftain that you mentioned was actually Radbod king of the Frisians and yes it is somewhat anecdotal

Maybe we should start smashing statues of Boniface and steal back the church he built from the tree.

Yes but you also need to start sacrificing babies and people to your pagan gods - if you want to be sincere and not hypocrite. If you are not sacrificing babies and people to your pagan gods and think that paganism is about dancing around trees and throwing flowers in water - then you should leave st. Boniface´s statues alone. Because I imagine you still prefere reality of christian civilization you live in than pagan one we are about to turn into. Including sacrificing of babies and people to gods. Paganism is demonic, you worship demons. It always ends with blood - always. If you believe it´s this romantic nature worship you know nothing about paganism. Not the ancient one not the current one because every demon worship ends the same. St. Boniface pray for this lost child of God.

Boniface (Latin: Bonifatius; c. 675 - 5 June 754) was an English Benedictine monk and the leading figure in the Anglo-Saxon mission to the Germanic parts of the Frankish Empire during the eighth century. He organised significant foundations of the Church in Germany and was made archbishop of Mainz by Pope Gregory III. He was martyred in Frisia in 754, along with 52 others, and his remains were returned to Fulda, where they rest in a sarcophagus which has become a site of pilgrimage.

Boniface met a fitting end stabbed to death by Frisian bandits, as he was himself a bandit of the highest order, set on pillaging and overthrowing what was sacred to the Germans.

Very sad that clergy who showed the most intolerance were considered as saints rather than being condemned for their actions.

thor was venerated by the northern germanic tribes,id est the skandinavians. the holy trees in germany were holy to wotan or donar. as the chief of the gods, the asen, wotan can be seen as the aquivalent to thor but in germany no one called him thor, just wotan or donar.

if the christian god really did "create the heavens and the earth and the trees, plants, animals and humans" it seems to me that cutting down the oak of Donar (Þórr or Thor, as you will) would also be an affront to the christian god alongside the gods of the Saxons. in the very same Hebrew writings that christianity adopted the same Hebrew or christian god both "created trees" specifically but ordered the destruction of groves of trees dedicated to goddesses seems to be very inconsistent and i don't believe that i could ever be loyal to a god who enjoys both "creating" and destroying trees no wonder that the Saxons were offended

CE is historically more rigorous. AD originally had the underlying assumption that Jesus was born exactly in 1 AD. We of course now know that he almost certainly wasn't born in that year, but probably a few years prior. The equivalents of AD can be especially problematic, as they often (like in my native Finnish) literally translate as "after Christ".

The power of Thor is nothing in comparison to the POWER OF JESUS CHRIST the SON Of the ALMIGHTY GOD.
