Well, as nearly impossible as it is, I cant say it will never happen because who knows.. but to me it seems like it would be next to impossible, It would be such a "backwards evolution" that not being able to lucid dream would be the least of our worries, as a matter of fact that we probably wouldn't even be able to worry .
Lucid dreams are no different then regular dreaming, or imagination, or use of our senses.. the reason that we become lucid is because we become self aware or conscious, the brain is awake during "sleep", its the body that sleeps.. and becoming aware is pretty natural, we had become aware in "real life" at some point right?
I dont wanna turn this into an essay, but some believe intelligence is essentially prediction.
Becoming lucid in a dream is no different, you pretty much expect (or predict) your hands to look normal, your finger to not go through your palm, this is true of all reality checks obviously. When something goes wrong, you suddenly focus on it. In real life if I took away 1 or 2 steps from your staircase in your house, you would know. Not because you count them, because you simply expect there to be another stair once you get to the top. Becoming lucid is the same thing, you basically predict something to happen, it doesn't, and you just know. From there its almost like you give life to your dream body, and have control.. the same kind you do in real life. The difference is there are no physical laws. Its as if you become conscious or aware in a different frame of mind.
Maybe deep down, one day we will forget how to "become aware".. but I feel that it is a natural skill, and one that will only improve as we continue to progress. Being aware is essentially life, and I cant see anything that would affect that while asleep, seeing how the brain is active.
