With the new Dune movie being released this year, as well as recently published new book in the series, the time seems ripe to have a discussion about this Sci-Fi epic. In Dune, multiple religious, or religious-esque forces shape the universe: from the Fremen, to the Tlielaxu, to the Bene Geserit, to the hidden Jewish people, religion fills Frank Herbert's series. This panel will be a discussion on the mythos found throughout the Dune series. We will explore their impact on the story, in particular the Bene Geserit and Tlielaxu as compared to the Fremen.
