destination which is closely connected with the country’s conversion to Christianity. At the time of Iceland’s conversion, the priest leading the country was Porgeir Porkelsson, and as leader he was in charge of settling growing religious disputes between Christians and those who worshiped Nordic Gods. While he worshiped Nordic Gods himself, Porkelsson made the decision that all of Iceland should be Christian.
