The Law and Lucid Dreaming
I'm quite sure that this has been discussed before in some way shape or form.
Do you think it will, or should, reach a point where people should be somehow restricted or rewarded for what they dream about? Obviously not, I presume.
But do you think it should hold some weight in a court of law? Would what someone dreamed about help justify a crime?
For example. A mother assaults her neighbour after he has a brief conversation with her.
But what if this neighbour had told her in explicit detail, something very wrong, very disturbing he had enacted in one of his dreams? Regarding her children? The law recognizes that as something regarding taunting or provoking assault. But do you believe that it should be taken further? Sure the man didn't actually do anything to the mother or her family, but he dreamed it in perfect detail.
I dunno. I think its a sticky situation. Wouldn't it drive you insane with rage or shame if you knew that the kid in the dark corner at school was dreaming, doing things to you every night?
Not to come across as a creep or anything :eek:
