Anyone else feel how Christian biased history taught at school is?

There is a general bias against the Vikings because they were Pagans and non English/non Latin speaking.
They are portrayed as violent and uncultured but I do not think they any more brutal than Christian civilizations during the Dark Ages such as the Normans.

The Normans were vikings.

The Normans (in French: Normands) were the people who gave their name to Normandy, a region in northern France. They were descended from Norse Viking conquerors of the territory and the native population of Frankish[2] and Gallo-Roman stock.[3] Their identity emerged initially in the first half of the 10th century, and gradually evolved over succeeding centuries.

The English name "Normans" comes from the French words Normans / Normanz, plural of Normant,[4] that is itself borrowed from Old Low Franconian Nortmann "Northman"[5] or directly from Old Norse Norðmaðr, Latinized in Nortmannus (recorded in Medieval Latin, 9th century) to mean "Norseman" or "Viking".[6]

And they were brutal, but not all the time.
