Well it is speculated that when you die, you actually wake up. I mean, wouldn't that be insane?Heres some interesting things:
You know when you sleep, you look at the clock and lets say its 11:34 am. You fall asleep and you're having this spectacularly vivid and long dream, you wake up and you would expect it to be morning but its only 11:38 am. When you die, there is 12 minuetes of brain activity after the heart stops beating. Could this 12 minuetes keep us in a dream state? Could those 12 min. be a re-living of those years you were alive?
I'm not really explaining it well, if you want to know more about it, there is a movie you should watch....i cant think of it right now, but i will let you know tomorrow..its by the same guy that wrote Dazed and Confused.
Please.....ponder
isnt that a song or something? life is but a dream? iunno.

no you havent. you've felt pain and then it showed up in your dream, but nonphysical contact doesnt have a way of physically hurting you. unless you're totally mental and your mind tricked you into feeling pain. wierdo.

I go places when I dream, and those places are as real as here. So, yes, I have felt pain.
And the weirdo comment, well, what you think of others is what you feel about yourself.
I wish you great happiness.

No, you can not prove either. And to consider life to be a dream, than it is what we make it. And right now I'm hoping that you will die in my dream...what not happening? than theory proven...

Are you proposing that we are living in an alternate reality controlled by a supreme being who controls our surroundings and lives. And that we are measly insignificant creations to a large divine plan? Cause if you are, the idea has already been thought.
Come to think of it, I think they made a Justice League Episode on this...

I can't believe people actually believe that places in dreams are actually real places they go to.
A draem is a recollection of events, and sometimes the mind plays out possible events in a dream. There's no interdimensional space/time travel. There's no physical pain. Dying in your dream doesn't mean you really die. Getting pinched in your dream doesn't cause any actual pain. You still wake up in your friggin bed. Unless you rolled over and fell off.
Yes, I'm happy and I'm a wierdo. What of it?
Niener.
Originally posted by ArachnoidfreakNot all the time, my friend. Dreams may be some kind of recollections of events, and maybe some possible events, but some people dream about the dead. You want to know what that is, thats not dreaming about your dead grandma or dead pet. This is a trip you took, you took a trip to the land of the dead (not to be confused with George A. Romero)

Dreams have surmassed as a collection of one of two things: Purpose and Nonpurpose. Purpose dreams are some what tied to memory or a subliminal cordea where the mind is trying to tell/remind you of something. Nonpurpose dreams are a manner of the mind "venting" images that seem to be taking much space. These dreams are usually what scientist like to call "abstract visions" which is meant to entitle the fact that their is no order, no conveyance, just images.
However to the extent of pain in ones dreams is the bodies attempt to make it as real as possible. But the body can only go so far to where the "saftey locks" (which is the actual wakening measure [i.e. wake up crying, laughing, hurting, etc...]) wake you. However the body can run through a poliphera of emotoins in a single dream without the host feeling a drop of guilt or a single ray of joy...

Note that I said extreme in there. Someone can only dream so much, make things complex to an extent. Soon such a strain would be unbearable and the mind would collapse...
Originally posted by Revernd Maynard
so a climax of a dream could cause it to collapse? i guess i dont get what you're saying 😬
More or less. Certain dreams are not meant to finish because:
a.)The images have run out
b.)What the mind was trying to say can not go past the decision. Like the Matrix. How the oracle could never see past the choice.
However I still don't think that we're living in a dream. I mean the complexity of this universe has made scientist believe there is a God. To consider this is someone's form of "venting" mental images is an idiocy even retards could decipher...
