Supernaturally inspiring – How the Winchester brothers not only entertain me, but make me think (perhaps a little too much) – part II

A little later during the second episode of season 4 (if you want the background to this post, you should check out part I here), Dean, who has obviously been mulling all of this over, can’t keep his thoughts to himself. Dean: See, this is why I can’t get behind God. Sam: What are you… Read More Supernaturally inspiring – How the Winchester brothers not only entertain me, but make me think (perhaps a little too much) – part II
