You can't just pool such a long history of a people into one segment.

Well, since the viking age only lasted from 793 (plundering of the abbey on Lindisfarne) to 1066 (battle of stamford bridge) they sure did serve as bodyguards while still worshipping the norse gods. There are historical evidence of this, but you can ofcourse choose to ignore it.
I really dont get what you mean by different times? Bear in mind that it wasnt until the 11th century that the "vikings" were considered to be converted to the "new religion" (ie at the end of the viking age)
