Dreams and the Zeitgeist

Where to start with this speculation. I'll begin by saying that, by and large, I'm something of a cosmological pragmatist. I accept the materialist view that moral things, finer things, can't really be justified or explained with practical means. We haven't yet found an equation to find the "just" course of action every time, and if we did, it wouldn't look anything like Newton's equation of Force.

Still, indeed, we can probably rule out spooky action at a distance for the possibility of shared dream locations. If we all dream of the same place, it probably has more to do with Durkheim's conception of the social fact than the Yungian Ideal.
