Supernatural; Sympathy For The Devil

[jude_judith82]

I was going to do a picspam/review but then decided to do them seperately since I figured you all would want to enjoy the pretty without my ramblings. Any way under the cut since this will be chock full of spoilers.

yes, the boys will come back from this. They won't be the same, but why should they be? How can one go through what they've been through and remain unchanged? I do, however, believe they will eventually be stronger, and yes, Dean will trust Sam again. And I can't wait to see how they get there.

I know they'll get there. I like you think they will have a stronger bond.

And let me tell you, I have seen the proof of that on my own flist.

I've read some meta and yeah they don't seem bothered by it I guess I kind of resent like you said a generic label being placed on fandom and I think the *wink,wink,nudge,nudge* thing got old fast. It was funny the first time around but not so much, at least for, this time.

Oh by the way this is something I wanted to ask you because I remember last season you commented on this but what type of issues did you have. I know a person's belief system is very personal and sacred so if you don't want to discuss it it's fine with me. I was just curious. B/C for me, ironically, it's growing up Christian that made me much more interested in the change of mythology on SPN. Something that I never expected to see since I've always thought the show to be so very secular. It was a pleasant surprise. Any way I'm glad they let you out and about from time to time. I hope all is well with you.

They don't let me out, I ESCAPE, and then they drag me back in. :D

My grandfather was a Presbyterian minister, and while I think I have a pretty fluid attitude toward religion as a whole, there are certain core concepts I'm just not comfortable messing with. Angels who were "dicks," and a God who seemed to have turned his back on humanity, were just too WRONG for me to accept. So I found myself fighting with the episodes as I watched them, and actually getting upset.

I was so surprised to find myself taking it all so seriously, and personally. I mean, it's a TV show! And Kripke doesn't have an agenda; he isn't trying to do anything more than tell a good story. I could accept the demons, spirits, werewolves, and vampires on the show as pure fantasy, no problem, so why the big fuss over the angels? Obviously I had some unresolved issues with my own personal belief system that I needed to explore. And ironically, it was Supernatural that led me to do exactly that, leaving me free to enjoy the show for what it was once more.

I'm glad you can escape. I'm imagining you doing a Shawshank type of escape now. LOL. I wouldn't consider myself religious at this point of my life but I find it funny how those ideals are so ingrained. They come up so unexpectedly at times that I surprise myself. Ironically though Supernatural has made me once again interested in Theology again something at one time I considered studying. Life can be so funny. I'm glad your watching though it's cool to talk to you about the eppys.
