Thread: An opposer of dreaming?

You could write about whether or not ethics apply in lucid dreams, afterall in lucid dreams you are conciously choosing to do actions which you wouldn't in waking life e.g. kill someone, have an 'affair' in your dream etc.

I've seen posts on LD forums about this question before but I can't think of organisations with this view. Maybe really religious people may believe this?

Dunno if this is going to help, but personally I thought this would be easier to write about than someone thinking LD's are satanic or something.

I know this isn't a newbie zone post, but I feel obligated to you
Good idea, I never thought of that.

Some people think dream serve a purpose for the subconscious mind and to change them will mess with your psychology or something.

Yeah... I know I'm beating the dead horse but some people become obsessed with it and use it as a way to escape their natural lifestyles. People will spend more hours sleeping (or trying to sleep) than awake and become addicted...

If you need to cite sources, I know that there is something on the web that talks about the dangers of lucid dreaming... I was reading it yesterday or this morning (not sure though... I am addicted to lucid dreaming and can't discern between days! lol jk jk... but close)... I forgot what the title was exactly but it was in the subsection of something... OH YEAH! It was a wikibook... K so new train of thought...

Go to the dreamviews main discussion page.

Click on the Education tab (it's pretty low down there)

Somewhere in there is a post about a lucid dreaming book.

Somewhere in THAT post is a post about a book/ wikibook.

Click on that.

It's one of the subsections... it's like "Problems with lucid dreaming" or something of the likeness...

Good luck to ya!
