“Dreams are just your brain taking out the trash, nothing more”
Agree
- Neuroscience shows it's memory consolidation
- Most dreams are random nonsense
- No evidence of deeper meaning
- Animals dream too, it's just biological
- Pattern-seeking makes us see significance
Disagree
- Dreams have predicted real things
- They reveal subconscious truths
- Cultures have used them for guidance forever
- Too vivid and specific to be random
- They solve problems we can't consciously
