Not at all, we are merely accustomed to sleep during the darkness, but it's equally as healthy to sleep during the day and work or whatever during the night. As long as you get a decent amount of sleep, the time of day which you sleep doesn't matter. Sure it will take your body and internal clock some time to adjust, but once it does you'll still be at peak performance.

Human routine has been destroyed anyway, why anyone needs 8 hours sleep I'll never know, the human body functions fine on two hours sleep if it's doing meaningful tasks during the active hours.

I certainly think that an abrupt change in sleeping paterns: Ie- A regular sleeper sleeping during the day for a week - would make that person feel lousy.
However, I feel it may be possible for people to be quite comfortable, as long as they relax them selves in to that routine.

It certainly goes against your biological time clock. However, eventually your body alters itself to fit your schedule, so once your time clock has adjusted you're not doing any harm.
As far as sleeping goes there are knew studies coming out showing that, as long at you get 7-8 hours of sleep a day it does not matter when it is, or if it is even consecutive. If you take 4 2 hour long naps during light hours of the day it has the same effect as sleeping 8 hours straight through the night.
REM sleep isn't necessarily the most important sleep stage, either. It is the deep sleep before REM sleep that really matters. As we get older we lose a lot of the time we spend in deep sleep, which a lot of scientists are now beginning to say this attributes itself to memory loss problems that resemble Alzheimer's, and can even cause type 2 diabetes.
