You might try what works good on apples. Put them in moist dirt/potting soil in a small plastic bag and set it in the crisper drawer of your refrigerator. Check in every 30 days for 4 months to see if they have sprouted.
Failing in that, you might feed them to some chickens save the droppings and plant them. Birds are the best planters of other types of cedar trees. You see them coming up all along the fences in the South. With chickens, you will have control over where they come up.

What about soaking the seeds in vinegar or sulfuric acid?
I found the following method for seed propagation at this link.

't know where to get sulfuric acid though. Would vinegar work?
