What Do Dreams Mean? Whatever Your Bias Says

Suppose last night you had two dreams. In one, God appears and commands you to take a year off and travel the world. In the other, God commands you to take a year off to go work in a leper colony.
Which of those dreams, if either, would you consider meaningful?
Or suppose you had one dream in which your friend defends you against enemies, and another dream in which that same friend goes behind your back and tries to seduce your significant other? Which would you take seriously?
Tough questions, but social scientists now have answers - and really, it's about time. For thousands of years, dreamers have had little more to go on than the two-gate hypothesis proposed in "The Odyssey." After Penelope dreams of the return of her lost-long husband, she's skeptical and says that only some dreams matter.

Questions
1. What is the researchers in this article trying to show?
2. Do you think your dreams reflect your emotional state or do they tell you something about the future? Do you think they are just random information?
3. Do you interpret your dreams based on your own bias? Have you used this type of interpretation as an excuse to do something you really desired?
4. Are you easily swayed by how others interpret your own dreams?
5. Do you think your religious beliefs play a big part in your dream interpretations?
