I fully believe that Paul was the KH. I fully agree that He could be in many places at once.

I do NOT agree he had ANY knowledge of other memory. Never not once does he cite historical knowledge as Leto II was known to do.

Never not once does he talk to ANYONE in OM, if had access to OM, I'm POSITIVE that he would have talked to his father for guidance, and it would have been reflected in the plot.

now, I will concede he MAY have had it but it was suppressed during his spice trance after taking the water of life. Many RM's do not use other memory, and it's possible Paul was too focused on the future, but I doubt it.

The answers to whether or not he had OM, are to be found in the text once he has taken the water of life. You can't base it on a first chapter speculation by Mohiam.

The Witches never had a Male reverend mother, they could only speculate on what he would truly be, they would not know for sure.

so for me this is no proof at all.
