怎麼可能這個狂人活到74歲 還未被關起來

Oliver Kamm, 英國時報專欄作家，他認爲形容羅恩賀伯特這個天下無雙的吹牛王，最好是Martin Gardner，他對賀伯特倆本書的評論：

我完成了兩本書，雙重驚奇。怎麼可能這個狂人活到74歲，還未被關起來？ 一個科幻邪教，以這種荒謬的理論和邪惡的道德，如何能繼續蓬勃發展？愚蠢的宗教，我想像老戰士一樣永遠不死，要數百年後才可能最後褪色。(Nature 1988)

Oliver Kamm: Scientology sham: "'I finished the two books with double amazement. How could a man this crazy have lived to 74 without being committed? How could a science-fiction cult, with such preposterous doctrines and evil morals, continue to flourish? Idiotic religions, I suppose, like old soldiers never die, and centuries can pass before they finally fade.'"
