Hi, I'm new to the forum and while I've heard about LD in the past, it's only recently that I've been serious about it. So far, no luck. I have always had bad dream recall, and I have only been keeping a dream journal for a few days (only one entry so far, a very brief image remembered from the night before).

Anyway, that's not what this post is about. I'm curious to see what people think about ethics and morality in dreams. It seems to me that, since a dream is only in your head and not real, that ethics and morality don't really matter. Does everybody agree with this? Basically, I wonder what people think about doing things in dreams that you would not do in real life. For example, robbing a bank, sleeping with girlfriend's best friend, committing senseless murders, etc. Obviously, in real life, these things would all be wrong. If it's in a dream, does that make it okay? Are there any things that are right or wrong to do in dreams? Or is the dreamworld totally amoral?

I'm a student of philosophy, so I am interested in these kinds of things. I'm just curious to see how everybody else feels on this matter.
