The Religion Of The God Emperor | Dune Lore

What Is It?

The YouTube video The Religion Of The God Emperor | Dune Lore by the YouTube channel Nerd Cookies:

The Religion Of The God Emperor | Dune Lore

Here is the description for this video:

The most dramatic example of the dire consequences of blind faith and unquestioning belief can be found with the rise of the mighty and terrible God Emperor, who successfully forced a religion of his own design upon the known universe.

In this video, I examine the religion of the God Emperor and the vital role it played in saving humanity from its otherwise inevitable destruction.

Spoiler warning if you are unfamiliar with Frank Herbert’s Dune saga.

Dune: Why Create A God?

Dune: Why Create A God?

What Is It?

The YouTube video Dune: Why Create A God? by the YouTube channel, Quinn’s Ideas.

Here is the description for this video:

In this video, we will talk about the Purpose of “God” within the context of the Dune Saga.

In a sense, the Dune Saga is all about the concept of Godhood.

In the first book we see the apotheosis of Paul Atreides, as he uses the path laid out for him by the Bene Gesserit Missionaria Protectiva, to convince the Fremen that he is their prophesied savior.

Wielding the power of the Fremen Paul is able to avenge house Atreides and unseat the emperor of the known universe.

But in doing so he also entangled the throne to a fanatical religion, his Godhood would be invoked by others who would go on to commit terrible atrocities in his name.

The problem with this is that interpretation of God’s will cannot be easily monopolized.

A Government entangled with religion risks losing control over the very populace it seeks to subjugate, when that populace’s view of god shifts out of line with the standard established.

Muad’Dib…Final Speech…

Muad’Dib…Final Speech…

What is it?

The YouTube video Muad’Dib…Final Speech… by the YouTube channel Paul Atreides, here is the description for this video:

Everywhere is peace…Everywhere… except in the heart of Muad’Dib.

Who is it that calls for Muad’Dib?

Help us, Muad’Dib.

Muad’Dib’s words are the wind.

They vanish…
Like water on the sand.

I’ll give you Muad’Dib’s words.

I’ll rub your faces in them!

I am the voice
from the wilderness…

And I bring you a warning.

The water we spread upon the desert
has become blood.

Blood… upon the land
which was once clean and pure.

We have provoked the desert…
Forsaken its ways.

We have succumbed to mindless ritual…

And seductive ceremony…

Placed faith in those who crush dissent…

Enrich themselves with power…

Commit atrocity.

All in the name of righteousness!

All in the name…

Of Muad’Dib.

We have fouled the nest…

And it is killing us.

But I have seen another path…

A golden path-

The path Muad’Dib could not take.

I have stood upon the sand…

And I have seen a beast rise up.

And upon the head of that beast…

Is the name of salvation…

Come to spill water upon the sand…

Come to lead us back…

To a dry and thirsty land.

Only one blasphemy remains…

And that blasphemy…

Is Alia!

Forgive me…

Sister.

…….
……
……

It’s in your hands now…

Son.

Syfy’s Children Of Dune Is Epic!

Syfy’s Children Of Dune Is Epic!

What is it?

The YouTube video Syfy’s Children Of Dune Is Epic! by the YouTube channel Quinn’s Ideas, here is the description for this video:

After the miniseries Based on Frank Herbert’s epic science fiction book dune set records for the Syfy channel, the network was eager to produce a sequel.

In 2003 the channel aired a three-part miniseries combining the book’s Dune Messiah and Children of Dune.

They titled the series Children of Dune.

Children on Dune first aired on March 16, 2003, and was produced with a budget of twenty million dollars.

Most of the original actors from the first miniseries reprised their roles in this one, including Alec Newman as Paul Atreides, Judy Cox as the Princess Irulan and Ian McNeice as the Baron Harkonnen.

Saskia Reeves, who portrayed the lady Jessica in the first miniseries, was replaced by Alice Krige in this one.

The Roles of Leto and Ghanima are portrayed in the series by James McAvoy and Jessica Brooks.

This miniseries is the only attempt ever at adapting any books in the series other than the original Dune book, and I have to say, they did a pretty decent job considering the resources they had.

In my opinion, this series is superior to the first.

The first episode in the miniseries covers the book Dune Messiah, which takes place more than a decade after Dune.

While the final two episodes cover the book Children of Dune.

The series is 4 hours and 30 minutes in total.
