The illusion of democracy.

Do you feel liberated in your Lucid Dreaming Ability. Do you think the Powers that be would not be at least a little interested in your ability. After all they would have no control over you whatsoever if they did not investigate. How safe do you feel breaking "New Boundaries". I mean, rather than being "Closet" lucid Dreamers, we are advertising ourselves to the world. I bet it would be worth a few thousand bucks interest to any Powers that be just to investigate this. Then maybe I am just Paranoid.

Cause i live in the U.S. i never fear ... but if I was in China ... who knows ...

Its not illegal to dream. That would be like saying its illegal to use a restroom. Seriously try to think your topics through will ya?

What ??. You feel your own Government would not at least take an interest. I'm sure they would. In fact anything that was considered "new and different" would interest them.

I agree but I dont know if they would really bother with Lucid Draeming. It doesn't really affect reality which is what they are concerned about.

I think the only interest the U.S. government might have in our ability to lucid dream would be if one of us finally discovered and posted the infamous "holy grail" technique we're all looking for that alllows us to have LD's at will.

If that happened, we might stop buying the latest clothes, cars, and computers every 6 months and actually learn to enjoy ourselves without material items. :eek:

Our entire economy could collapse under the strain. :!:

:wink:

Smacks of Big Brother...the Higher beings could use our knowledge of lucidity to control us...

The ability to LD is useless to governments. I'm laughing at the mere thought of a government agency trying to shut someone up by force because they are lucid dreaming :lol:

the government has probanly already looked into this, I can think of a few good reasons for them doing so (ie. training soldiers even while they sleep, giving soldiers time to relax even in a war), yeah you get the idea right? the problem is, that if they are going to try and use it for anything else (like training) then they would have to learn how to put thoughts into the brain, which as far as we know is impossible. I wouldnt doubt that they have looked into this considering the possibilities of giving a soldier time to have fun even in the middle of a warzone.

but no, why would the government go after millions of people just because they can lucid dream? I could see them hunting us down if it was an occult or we were able to effect reality, but so far theres no evidence of that.

We have discussed this in lenght about the government project named remote viewing. Some believe it to be true, others don't.
I say come and get me!!!

Astral Projection & the Government
Astral Projection. real or a Mythe? [Poll]

If we see a dramatic decrease in members whom call themselves naturals, and are indeed what they say they are..... then we may have merit to start fretting over it.

Besides most Government jobs have good benifits. :wink:
