Read the Sagas. There's no mention of priests commanding free people to do jack shit. Until Christianity shows up.
You suffer from the same problem that every slave suffers from. You think that the way you were commanded to live your life is the only possible correct way to live. Because to imagine otherwise is a sin.
Here's how it works with free people. Free people make decisions for themselves, and either it's a good decision and they thrive, or it's a bad decision and the perish quickly.
Meanwhile, in your slave colony, slaves who make bad decisions get "saved" by the master, because the master needs all his fuckups to pick cotton in the fields tomorrow, regardless.
So, you see a loose woman in your slave colony and she's fine, because she gets welfare. And you don't know any other way. So, you apply that line of thinking to free people, who you never actually met.
Meanwhile, free people don't have room to make bad life decisions, because there is no master to provide welfare. So, the relationships are stable. Otherwise, the free people who make bad decisions die fast.
There are no free loose women. No hippies on drugs. They are all dead. That only happens in your slave colony.
Speaking of diverting, do you have an outfit?
Yep. Modern Heathens split, fashion wise. Half of us went cowboy and the other half went black metal. I guess I'm a bit of both. The motorcycle is cool though.
