Actually yes, I do decide what I believe makes sense with everything I have learnt about these characters in the last 6 years - or 3 years in Castiel's case - and what just doesn't. And a lot of the things in season 6 didn't make sense, or if I do accept them, they make Sam and Dean less likable to me.

He always wanted to be the big cheese, he always wanted power.

I honestly don't know where you're taking that from. Before the season 6 finale, when was it ever as much as hinted that Castiel wanted power?

About the angelic civil war, I think you're missing my point. I never expected Sam and Dean to join the war, or for Dean to choose this war over Sam. Neither did Cas, apparently, which, ironically enough, is one of the things Dean is blaming him for in 6x20.

I also don't deny that Castiel did some questionable things, but he did them in a desperate situation. He did them, because it was the only possible option he saw to win this war, and keep the people he loved safe.

But all that aside, like Castiel, don't like him, approve of what he did, or don't, how is Castiel taking away from the relatonship between Sam and Dean? How does the two of them having friends - or God forbid family - other than each other make their bond any less important?
Like I said in my post, I completely agree that Sam and Dean are the heart of this show, and that they won't ever love anyone more than they love each other.
But if that means that they can never truly care about another character, if that means that no other character can ever be important enough so (s)he can't just be tossed aside, then that's a truly lonely and hopeless world they are living in.
