Could you please explain more detailed what your issues with the christian mythology are? That's really hard to explain. I don't even know if I understand it myself. I think it started when I was about 14 or something that I just started hating this god. I didn't even grow up in a very religious environment but everytime I came in contact with that religion I felt like it's god tried to force his so called "love" on me. And I felt like I was drowning and my free will and my freedom were taken away from me. And the only thing I could do was fight it with everything I had. That's why I hate churches and crosses... because they bring that feeling back. I tried a long time to just ignore that power, find protection with other forces I feel save with. Just not let this god have any influence on my life. And most of the time I manage but there are situations when all these feelings, the hate, the fear, come back. If you still want to know more about this, can we talk about it via PM? But I can't promise that what it'll make any sense.
And you're right, Dean is Sam's Angel. And Sam is Dean's Angel. And I think that's the most important part.
I mean, after all he was raised in christian environment. Huh? What did I miss? As far as I know John (at least officially) had no religion and I always got the feeling that using christian ritual had more practical reasons because...well, they worked so the "why" wasn't really important.
And the scene with that accident where the bad guy got killed through "God's will" - why not? Maybe there really is a greater good, weather you call it God or Allah or Jahwe or something completely else, which only wants to make the world a better place. And if that means that it has to kill people, why not? He/she/it's making the world a better place by killing? If there's a force (one that calls itself THE power/force/whatever) that just decides who's worth saving and who's not, that decides if you deserve another chance or you if you don't, that punishes, than I'm never going to call it "greater good". If it's really that powerful than it will find other ways.
Why? Because he found it in someone's death. Not in someone dying so someone else could be saved cause the girl was save by then but just simply in someone getting killed.
And one more thing: When I say that somethings good/evil/right/wrong I don't mean from an objective point of view but from my personal point of view. Cause that's all I have. And when I say that I don't like the christian god then I can still accept that other people find faith, peace or whatever in his religion. As long as they don't try to force me into it. I have issues with him not his followers.
