I hate it when stories like that are used to manipulate people. Over the years, I have observed that motivation by fear is the most temporary sort of "salvation."
As far as the article goes, I'm not interested in calling the author a liar. I do think that some people have dreams and visions and aren't able to distinguish them from reality. To them, it may be very, very real. That doesn't mean it's reality.
