This is where the conflict comes in because both boys are clinging to people they shouldn't. Both Ruby and the angels should be held at arms length, at best, and they are being way too accepting of both parties.
I think you hit the nail right on the head there!
In Castiel's case, I think he's inching closer to falling every time he hangs out with Dean.
Oh, definitely! You can see it happening (and damn if Misha isn't an amazing actor for it!), you can see it in his expression, in the choices he's begun to make.
I thought it was really interesting that Anna mentioned the four who've seen God's face. I'm assuming than that they are the only four angels named in the Bible: Gabriel, Michael, Raphael and Uriel. Not Castiel. This serves two purposes: I can see, then, why Uriel has absolute faith, and also why Castiel would be faltering.
Damn, I love the production team so much for giving us such fodder for discussion! :-D Gah, less than a week now....
