So basically, Faith is the ultimate weapon?

yep. be careful what enter thee yung believer

In a larger sense all belief is a psyop war. Primitive belief made the fremen a tool but even the people who don’t see the Gesserit project as a true religion give it power.

No the ultimate weapon is space muslims on space drugs, did you even read the book?

no thats the Bible that built the british empire that the main character and author are from. sadly it had fallen into disuse and consequently the empire was overtaken by obscurantism, ignorance, vanity

Being able to see the future helps

Honestly as far as speculative fiction goes it turns into pretty rancid pulp once it gets to saying things like 'okay the real fix for this 'humanity problem' is a millennia of hard galactic torture so bad it rewires the human DNA to inherently resist all control and live in a state of evolved yet primal constant conflict'
I mean it's a cool idea but I don't think Herbert was much of a leader, was probably just having fun with it most of the time

Epic of gilgamesh xD
Try saying something as rambunctious as Gilgamesh and attributing "epic" to it.

I think this has been tried before to thousands of years of great success

Unforgettable Final Fantasy character. He truly was epic.

Faith and the ability to block a pangalactic energy supply chain

And a horde of fearless, murderous kung-fu experts, if you happen to have them.

Plus you've got to fuse with divine worms and become a speaking inhuman divine worm yourself and then be treacherously dissolved into some sort of cosmic ascended-fascist micro-organism that i guess alters the galactic habitat towards a better new religion focused on post-tyranny against your enlightened space dust or something

And after all that, you still have to deal with the fucking Jews. I mean REALLY

Worst scifi series ever.

Apart from all the others.

>>25168339
not one's own faith but the faith of others.

>>25168339
no, its literally the opposite. Paul is made by eugenics to have max intelligence. its all about how intelligence > faith
