Often in dreams we experience extreme things. Some people fly in dreams, others forget to wear pants, some people get chased by murderers, some have sex. So if in dreams, we kill murderers, sin, have sex, etc... being as that is subconscious... are these thoughts sins? What is the teaching on 'sinning' in your dreams? (not daydreams im talking like deep sleep dreams)

When you are dreaming you are not conscious, therefore you cannot make a conscious decision to sin or not to sin. As a result, you cannot sin because you are not conscious, and have not had the free choice, one way or the other, to sin.

Hope that helps

God Bless Alelluia!!!
