Should Christianisation be an immigration requirement?

Oh look. Have you been checking out Christian history as of late ? Do you know when these people were converted ? Practically yesterday. Would you have called the average Saxon or Frank a Christian moments after conversion or would that have been a societal process taking centuries ? I'd say that Europe only became really Christian during the High Middle Ages.

There are traces of Heathenry in Western Europe to this day, specially in more peripheric areas of the Christendom like Iceland and Sweden. Heck, in some places of Sweden people still believe 'Oden' hunts spirits in winter nights riding a seven-legged horse.

Scandinavia was the last to be Christianized in Europe, indeed, and in some areas there has been quite strong resistance against it. However, having said that, Sweden was definitely thoroughly Christianized, and especially in the last few centuries Swedish missionaries have played a large role in spreading the Gospel to other parts of the world. One hears a lot about Swedish missionaries. Europe itself has been damaged quite a bit spiritually with aggressive secularization recently, unfortunately, and perhaps we will see Chinese missionaries soon coming to reclaim Europe for Christianity?

As part of reconstructed belief systems. You're not claiming that paganism and heathenry survived the Christianization of Sweden in an unbroken line are you?

It didn't survived as a form of worship, but the old gods still lurk around in the folk lore of Western European countries as evil spirits or other forms of entities, like in the case of Odin in Sweden. I'm not talking about reconstructed mumbo jumbo but actual folk beliefs.

we must build churches where there aren't, now in Europe there are a lot of muslims and Chinese or africans

Many "GERMANICS" were already Christians before entering the empire long before - during and after Constantinus.

Don't forget that it was much more dangerous to be christian under the romans than in the european territory beyond romans border..
