Despite his vision, Rommel was not given the resources to protect the spice.

 

What's scary is what could Rommel have done had he been given the resources to protect the spice

Almost unlimited upside, but on the most downside case, the other Houses would have had to sue for conditional peace.

Embrace the Horror.

 

Because the alternative is worse.

 

 

Well played, momos. Well played.

 

You have reminded me of getting what I wish for and that CG is full already.

I knew you would enjoy the politics, sexuality, geography, geology, philosophy, gender issues, language.

 

 

The book ends with Jessica & Chani meditating on concubinage vs marriage.

 

Gender issues & religion's impact on politics & the violent, retributive philosophical underpinnings of all three, Nate.

 

The book's focus is the religious question & explores its bearing on messianic figures, prophecy, prescience, racialism, bloody jihad, feudalism, capitalism, shamanism, & tribalism. Probably a bunch of other isms like environmentalism & so forth.

 

Jessica implores more than once that we 'pray.' My question is pray to whom or what?

 

exactly so

As for sex, House Atreides is so coldly efficient in breeding that there's little room for passion. I mean, does anyone really believe the Paul/Chani love story? It's dry like Arrakis.

 

The Baron's the only sexual character. :eek:

 

By the end of the series, I hold it in high esteem. There's even a great line that I quote to my wife, and while it might be hokey to many, it means a great deal to me.

My favorite Pico meme.

When I use to make pico at work I would sing a song. It was pico sung to the tune of Peter Gabriel's Biko.

 

Uh oh Pico, uh oh because oh oh Pico
