Quite the contrary, they were well-known for their elaborate Honor code, their monogamy, being against homosexuality, believing in hospitality towards the guest, etc..
If it was the Christians and not the Pagans who allegedly have this "morals and honor", why then did missionary mobs often rape pagan women or priestesses, murder people en masse, establish many brothels on some of our sacred sites, etc..? But alas, history is written by the victors and the Church wrote the history, denigrating our pre-Christian ancestors even while appropriating so much from them. As for chaos, the record of Christianity in our societies of the witch-hunts, the fratricidal conflicts between different branches of Christianity, all of this record is what really demonstrates chaos.
