Also, Dune is not about salvation. It's about a horrible monarchic system being overthrown and replaced with a horrible monarchic system because drugs let some kid see the future.
I always read it as like, radical Islamic Star wars.
You have the whole rebellion and the chosen one and the mystical powers and everything but instead of it being a blonde haired blue-eyed white boy it's a dark haired man incorporated into a desert tribe
