Here's what I think. Change is something doesn't open up any new options. Progress is something that allows more change or progress then before. |

Now that humankid has achieved the skill of lucid dreaming, do we really improve ourselves by doing it? is it change or progress? if a cannibal starts to use a knife and fork, is it change or progress? |

Thats an interesting question. For a start though we don't know recent all this is. There's claims made by buddhists that it a long part of their tradition. Maybe neanderthal man lucid dreamed. |

My understanding of progress links it with a sense of bettering the situation. This brings into question whether or not there even is "good" and "bad" at the most basic level of existence, and whether or not if there is if lucid dreaming is moving us towards the potential good. |

Thank you DNK for snapping to the point i wanted to make initially. they say that truth began with lies, meaning all used to be good and true until the first bad or untruth. as for the eating part, well if we didn't, we'd logically die, which is a bad thing (to us, but not bad for mother nature). so this changes the debate to what can be done to measure good, bad, and how it ultimately influences change and/or progress. |

First off, we are far from the pioneers off lucid dreaming. |

On the topic of death: death is bad from a personal point of view, i mean no one likes losing a loved one, and why are the majority of the population scared of it? |
