Move away from the Islamic mind Virus by billions of miles out there

I read Dune while my Dad was flying us kids around around the desert in a light plane. I had no idea at the time of Islam's influence on Frank Herbert's books. Islam was to me merely another silly religion among many. One of Frank's conclusions is something I eventually figured out on my own:

"All governments suffer a recurring problem: Power attracts pathological personalities"

His brutal war of Galactic conquest was contained in such a small space in his books I had completely forgotten how terrible they would have been! Billions killed reduced to a trivial mention .

Even in Science Fiction travel to other Galaxies is a rare thing. If our descendents ever get around to such a thing you can be sure that they would be essentially immortal by such a time.
