Subject: why machines??

Man, I just dont see frank building up to prescient machines at all. This is totally supported by marty and daniel. If there are prescient machines why arent they (M&D) afraid of them. Also, the honored matres said they ran away from those with many faces. Machines are a no threat to humanity. We see this when leto is talking bout the butlerian jhihad and says it happened because we were to reliant on machines and grew passive and basically dependant on them. He said that "lesson learned" it will never happen again. He says to i believe hwi that this is why he lets ix experiment with machines outlawed by the butlerian jhihad. The only way ill believe that frank was working up to prescient machines or any machines at all is if i actually see the outline brian found. Otherwise book 7 willl just be a justification for brians and kevins works. FOR SURE THE NEW FACE DANCERS ARE THE THREAT. Look how powerful and content marty and daniel are. DO THEY LOOK LIKE THEY'RE RUNNING FROM MACHINES OR EVEN SCARD OF MACHINES?? Theyre soo much in control that they argue bout letting idaho go like u were arguing over a single penny. It ends up being "who cares they got away, lol." Theyre in control so much in fact that they wanted scytale for studying. Come on where do machines come from beside that bs book by brian. Please show me references from franks books that can be interpreted to be leading up to a new butlerian jhihad type of book. You cant there are none. everything revovles around the very new face dancers (marty and daniel) and the mingling of the honored matres with bg. I guess u can throw in what will idaho do with sheeana. (maybe start a new thielaux civilization.)
well this is my opinion on this topic .
