dreaming is how the brain reorganizes itself - so if you take a pill to simulate sleep - wouldn't you hallucinate?? o.o

okay technical stuff aside, no, sleeping is so awesome

hypothetically, the pill would reorganize the brain.

I don't think you got his point. Since consciousness is a product of the brain, reorganizing said brain necessarily causes hallucinations.

Still, I don't see how that is relevant to the topic...

I think a drug like that is really a bad idea.

-Humans are bored so quickly in this world. We should see sleep as a blessing, it keeps us busy.

-This may sound a little silly, but a lot of idea's that helped this world came from dreams.

-People would probably 'abuse' it.

-Side effects

-Lucid dreaming would be even less populair then it is now. ()
