So I've been thinking Supernatural and I am confused about a couple things:
Arch Angels: Apparently there are seven Arch Angels (by common thought) (source: http://home.iprimus.com.au/gunnado/archangels.html). The most recognisable names being Michael, Gabriel, Raphael, & Uriel. (interestingly all arch angels names end with 'el' - which means 'in God' (interestingly even more is that the word 'angel' also ends in 'el'!!!)
Ok, confusion # 1: Uriel is an arch angel - however in Season 4 of Supernatural he was not mentioned as an arch angel and was a bit of a turd to be honest.
Confusion # 2: Chuck is protected by the arch angels - well we have already met 2 of them (well 3 I guess if you count Uriel - who died in Season 4). And apparently Michael is AWOL, so who are the other 4 arch angels and are they the ones protecting Chucl?
Confusion # 3: All the angels (with the exception of Castiel) are saying that God is dead.. ok 1) who the hell killed God & how; 2) how can there be exsitence without God who created everything and one would assume that if he wasn't around then everything would go. And if thats the case then why was it so hard for Lucifer to get out of hell if God wasn't around!
Confusion # 4: How does Cas keep finding Sam & Dean when he put a thing on their chests to keep them from being found? For that matter - how did Lucifer find Sam when he took off?? The thing on their ribs means that demons & angels can't find them, yet Lucifer found Sam and appeared to him as his dead girlfriend. And then when Sam & Dean were watching Lucifer raise the angel of death, Cas found them both.
I told you, its getting pretty confusing really. I am also a little confused in how the writers are portraying the angels as giving up. Both Gabriel & Raphael have pretty much given up on God and one assumes (simply because no one has mentioned it) that they are still a part of heaven - yet Cas has been cast out of heaven for having a couple of questions. It would seem to me that Raphael believing God is dead is a far greater crime than Cas having a few questions about what is going on.
Everything seems a little inconsistant to be honest, and very confusing. Hopefully it will all make sense sometime soon. Don't get me wrong tho, I love the show and this season is truely one of the best - if not the best. The actors they have chosen for the angels & Lucifer (with the exception of Raphael whom I really did not like at all) are just brilliant. I can't really wait to see what they do next.
