Default Wooden 4x4 vs Vinyl or Plastic posts?

Norway has several ancient spruce churches, some up to 1100 years old.
Secret is excellent drainage, steep roof slope, and yearly treatments
with creosote.

We're still using lots of 20 - 30 year old wood posts that were hand
peeled by my father-in-law and then soaked in creosote. Go with a good
wood post.
