   The Food Gang:   
      
   There was a group of guys, apart from / other than the dreamer, and something   
   to deal with available food.  While a LOT of the details have evaporated, it   
   had *something* to do with slavery:  the *group* of guys happened to be   
   somehow submissive to /    
   enslaved by some specific individual (much like how Muslims "submit to Allah.")   
      
   The dreamer, who apparently had a relatively healthy supply of food of his   
   own, was observing that the number of guys under the other individual all had   
   to share the *one* guy's meal.  That is, think of one guy having a piece of   
   chicken and a side of    
   potato salad to eat for a meal.  Now imagine having to divide that one amount   
   between 15 to 20 guys.   
      
   Meanwhile, the dreamer had a whole lunch for himself.   
      
   The analogy that was immediately apparent upon waking was that it was *very*   
   much akin to the analogy between Islam (20 guys, 1 piece of chicken) and those   
   who love and follow Jesus (one's "daily bread" as it were.)   
      
   Clarity was perhaps 11 (spiritually transcendent, applying in both dreamworld   
   as well as "the real world") although the visual clarity was 8-ish.   
      
   The Actors:  There was something akin to a play being performed and something   
   having to do with the casting call process:  there was one guy (possibly with   
   a female assistant?) who was performing the job of matching people (actors /   
   actresses) to their    
   roles.  Sadly, all I can remember about this dream at this point was that it   
   was there at some point, due mainly to the fact that I referenced it earlier   
   this morning.
