No, but the Fremen were and he couldn't denounce his religion without
losing the Fremen.
The spirit of Muad'Dib is more than words, more than the letter of the
Law which
arises in his name. Muad'Dib must always be that inner outrage against
the
complacently powerful, against the charlatans and the dogmatic
fanatics. It is
that inner outrage which must have its say because Muad'Dib taught us
one thing
above all others: that humans can endure only in a fraternity of
social justice.
