Religious Prohibitions Leading to Safe-tech - Page 10

I'd like to construct a society which is safe/retro-tech using a method similar to Dune's religious prohibition of certain technologies. In this case bio-tech, advanced computers (past, say, vacuum tubes), and cybernetics. However if possibly I'd like this to evolve or be interpreted out of preexisting commandments rather than being a reaction afterwards as the Butlerian Jihad was. However I'm not sure how to phrase the commandments and what theological bases they should come from.
