      Yes, morality is a social construct, but keep in mind it was built for a reason, and that construction has foundations buried deep in the bedrock of the human condition (regardless, amazingly, of geography or ethnicity). Morality is not a thing some guy made up a few years ago -- it is, at its core, a part of us; right down to our DNA, I think.

      So don't knock morality, and remember that your messing with your own core, not someone else's rules, when you do very bad things in a dream, for no reason other than to do them.

      Thank you for politely telling me I'm wrong.
