I think I'm missing something here on the second clause. Are you saying rejecting the novel led to a fanatical lack of perspective toward the novel, toward the issues, or toward RAH overall; and if toward Heinlein or the novel ... to the point where they could see nothing good about it or Heinlein, or the opposite? Sorry, but I'm just a bit uncertain of what you mean there...
