Feel free to read again. I have posted valid reasons for my thoughts over several posts in this topic.

You've done nothing so far but be twisty and post nothing of real value to counteract anything I've said.

The question I was discussing was whether or not social interaction in dreams can allow for social growth or for the dreamer to deal with social situations better in reality. The answer is no. This is a dreaming forum and a dreaming question. Ambiguously referring to it as a "simulation" pretty much seals the idea that you are more interested in pointless word play than writing anything of substance. But please, go on, argue about an idea whipped up from heresay as fact. And while your at it, why not share your reasons for why astral projection to Mars is real and I can how share dream with the queen every night through simply meditation. Those are other hole ridden ideas that people have no basis for believing in but do.

This isn't about my evidence. Its about yours. Its your job to prove your theory, not mine.
