What if dreams were nothing more than tests being performed by aliens in a galaxy far away. Not being able to reach earth with their current technology, and having the need to study our humanity to revive their own they used technology centuries beyond ours to create false scenarios in our heads.

They needed something subtle, something that would not provoke us. Testing us this way would only feel normal to us. They would find something we did during the day, and modify it a bit and see how we would behave.

Why else doesn't our logic function when we are sleeping? They trun it off for two reasons. The first, so we don't realize that we are dreaming and hence ruin the experiment, and the second is because they already have logic. That is why they chose to turn it off in our heads. They only needed the emotinal part of us. That's what they are missing.

The reason they don't just study what we do during the day is because the way we live is slightly different than their style of living. They need to examine specific questions that would ultimately benifit them.

Lucid dreamers are aware, but not aware enough. They are aware that they are dreaming, but those aliens developed techniques to keep us from knowing what's behind all this. An old trick was to fool the dreamer that he had a false awaking. This way they can keep the experiment going. Now they just give the dreamer control over his dreams as a distraction.

I hate to see what will happen if we all discover their manipulation. Would that mean they would stop these tests? Would that mean no more dreams? I haven't had dreams for the past couple of days since I started thinking about idea. What about you?
