I Talked to Jesus Last Night.

So last night I had a dream. In it, a man claiming to be Jesus and his brother were discovered. Through some series of what must've been odd coincidences, several people started believing they were the real deal, including the dream me.

So about 3/4s through the dream something happened and one of these brothers supposedly died, while the other was paralyzed. The whole them-being-Jesus thing kind of came crashing down when the dead one showed up and, instead of playing it like the resurrection (I guess my sub-conscious isn't that nuanced at plots) got in a fight with the paralyzed Jesus, who immediately revealed he wasn't paralyzed. Faced with this they admitted they were never Jesus..es (Jesi?).

To be fair, I should have recognized they weren't authentic messiahs when it was revealed the world would end when Ozzy Osbourne no longer considered himself attractive. But if the dream had been half as long (and therefore all the weird crap at the end didn't happen, including the rowboat race with the cast of Clone High), it almost could've been mistaken for a religious vision.

So, any opinions on the meaning of this dream? Any similar stories about quasi-religious messages from the dream world? Did you have an experience with a dualistic Jesus personality that later turned out to be a hoax? Share with me so I don't feel insane.

No, you're not insane, and furthermore the dream means absolutely squat. Like all dreams it's nothing more than your brain working through things while you sleep. Believe me, I've had tons of weird dreams.

Well, the level of detox required for Ozzy to be even coherent of his own physical appearance would take years for starters.

:D

And you could have asked them. "WTF was your Dad thinking when he told Dubya He wanted him to be President!?"

It means nothing, although this doesn't rule out your being insane ;)

I think Jesi is better than Jesuses. Your mileage may vary.

I dreamt I was being chased by the Terminator across the Alps.



In fact, it was a recurring one.

Hmmm.....

I've had some dreams, that if I didn't know better, I would say that they came from taking every possible drug out there! But luckily I know better. I trying to convince the police of that as we speak.:p

I had a dream that I was trapped in North Korea...so I did some Stallone-esque commando shit and escaped across the border...then I woke up

For some reason the North/South Korean border looked exactly like the US Canada border except with soldiers...and I was driving a hearse...

What I find funny about this is that I have an assignment in my public speaking class for what I would ask Jesus if I met him.

anyway when it comes to dreams I havent had enough action dreams as I would have liked. Most of them are adventures now that I think of it so maybe I'm full of shit.. but the problem is that I keep forgetting them 5 minutes after I regain conciousness. A cookie to the person who can tell me how to hold on to a dream.

My last action esque dream had to do with a zombie outbreak. Was good :D. I woke up just before my leg was to be bitten as I was climbing a building to escape :P

OK, I'm definately getting realling tired... I read that the first time as Stalin-esque, which made no sense at all

I remember a lot of my dreams, oddly enough. It doesn't help that they're so bizzarre.

Write your dreams down on paper right after you wake up...

I figure dreams are just your brain's way of trying to compensate for the boring life it leads when it's conscious.

I had one once about my Human Geography professor, who sunk a nuclear-powered amphibious city bus so she could use the fuel to create a warhead to destroy New York state and the surrounding area. I tried to chase after her, but she unleashed a pair of rather appropriate traps: plague rats and mice which were multiplying too fast for the land to sustain them.

Keep in mind (as I certainly seemed to) that she had a penchant for lamenting how First World countries used resources per capita far in excess of what was required or sustainable. I guess it comes with being an agent of the subversive West-hating leftist educational agenda (99% facetious hyperbole).

How many of them involve NSG posters? ;)

I had a dream where my brother and I both pretended to be Jesus. We crashed our Jesus van into Ozzy Osbourne's tour bus. My brother died and I couldn't move. Ozzy came out and kept asking if he "looked fat in these pants".

Ah, you misheard him. He didn't say "looked fat", he said "looked phat". I had the same dream, though it went further. Something about a replacement for red ants.
