Dreams really are meaningful!

This is the coolest story! Even if you don’t agree with me on abortion, you must admit this would make you think twice too. Dreams are meaningful alright, and it’s amazing how God can work in people through them! And to think, this man is forgiven of all his sins (he converted, so I assume he believes now) if he accepts God as his Savior and asks for forgiveness! that just makes me think about all the woman out their suffering post-abortion, from guilt, depression, or anything. I hope they would look at this and notice if God can forgive a man who performed abortions for 26 years, he can surely forgive you. I know it’s easier said than done, but just give it up to God and start using your experience (like this man) for good. Be a Martha, Mary, or Lazarus…but don’t let the guilt get the best of you! The devil hates it when we turn these things around on him, and use them to proclaim God’s glory.

I’m sure I’ll get a few neg comments in response to my views here, but it’s my blog and I have the freedom to choose what I want! Side-note: That’s a real choice! The freedom of “choice” act and claim for abortion, is a statement that makes no sense. To say that the issue is not about abortion, but choice, is to say that what’s being chosen is irrelevant. That is clearly illogical because all choices are not equal. Choosing whether to buy a new car is very different than choosing whether to produce child pornography, and the morality of those choices is not affected by the eventual decision. But the pro-choice position is that abortion becomes acceptable simply by the act of choosing to do it! That is not the Freedom of choice, I think, our Founding Fathers were referring too! Sorry got sidetracked, again! Just read the great story below…

Serbian Abortionist Who Aborted 48,000 Babies Becomes Pro-Life Activist

MADRID, November 13, 2008 (CNA) - The Spanish daily “La Razon” has published an article on the pro-life conversion of a former “champion of abortion.” Stojan Adasevic, who performed 48,000 abortions, sometimes up to 35 per day, is now the most important pro-life leader in Serbia, after spending 26 years as the most renowned abortion doctor in the country.

“The medical textbooks of the Communist regime said abortion was simply the removal of a blob of tissue,” the newspaper reported. “Ultrasounds allowing the fetus to be seen did not arrive until the 80s, but they did not change his opinion. Nevertheless, he began to have nightmares.”

In describing his conversion, Adasevic said he “dreamed about a beautiful field full of children and young people who were playing and laughing, from 4 to 24 years of age, but who ran away from him in fear. A man dressed in a black and white habit stared at him in silence. The dream was repeated each night and he would wake up in a cold sweat. One night he asked the man in black and white who he was. ‘My name is Thomas Aquinas,’ the man in his dream responded. Adasevic, educated in communist schools, had never heard of the Dominican genius saint. He didn’t recognize the name.”

“Why don’t you ask me who these children are?” St. Thomas asked Adasevic in his dream.

“They are the ones you killed with your abortions,” the Dominican saint told him.

“Adasevic awoke in amazement and decided not to perform any more abortions,” the article stated.

“That same day a cousin came to the hospital with his four months-pregnant girlfriend, who wanted to get her ninth abortion - something quite frequent in the countries of the Soviet bloc. The doctor agreed. Instead of removing the fetus piece by piece, he decided to chop it up and remove it as a mass. However, the baby’s heart came out still beating. Adasevic realized then that he had killed a human being,”

After this experience, Adasevic “told the hospital he would no longer perform abortions. Never before had a doctor in Communist Yugoslavia refused to do so. They cut his salary in half, fired his daughter from her job, and did not allow his son to enter the university.”

After years of pressure and on the verge of giving up, he had another dream about St. Thomas.

“You are my good friend, keep going,” the man in black and white told him. “Adasevic became involved in the pro-life movement and was able to get Yugoslav television to air the film ‘The Silent Scream,’ by Doctor Bernard Nathanson, two times.”

Adasevic has told his story in magazines and newspapers throughout Eastern Europe. He has returned to the Orthodox faith of his childhood and has studied the writings of St. Thomas Aquinas.

“Influenced by Aristotle, Thomas wrote that human life begins forty days after fertilization,” Adasevic wrote in one article. Scientific advancements since Thomas’ time, however, have revealed that human life begins at the moment of conception. La Razon commented that Adasevic “suggests that perhaps the saint wanted to make amends for that error.” Today the Serbian doctor continues to fight for the lives of the unborn.
