However, because this show basically owns my soul at the moment, I'm willing to give it the benefit of the doubt and see where it goes.
This is how I feel. Innocent until proven guilty! I mean, I already let it get away with a bunch of other things, like yeah, the weird women/race issues. Sometimes I feel I watch SPN to shop for tropes to write about in fic. It's a weird way to engage with media.

Ya dude, SPOILERS. The Norse and Hindu pantheons are gonna come into play. Baldur, Kali, and Ganesh have been cast. I am both superexcited and wary. I would be thrilled if all the pantheons band together to defeat Lucifer or whatever. It's like that scene from Prince Caspian, y'know. "Hinduism pledges its troops! Zoroastrianism pledges its troops! Shintoism pledges its troops!" Though if it comes to that, I guess it's the Winchesters gonna be heading that army, and We The Fandom might bust a nut quibbling over white man's burden and HAHAHA look at me anticipating wank. Let's not do that yet, self.

I was definitely raised to think of God as, like, a human with superpowers basically. Very anthropomorphized. I was wary of discussing religion with my parents, so I had to come across the conception of God as a 'how' rather than a 'what' on my own, helped along by certain books and movies, haha. I think what I'm learning is that how I think about god is largely related to how I engage with love and freedom, standards of which change as one grows up of course. So yeah, I started to think of god as this impartial force, as a description of how the world works, but now I'm coming around to anthropomorphizing him again.

I read Good Omens and absolutely love it. You are the second person to recommend "A River Runs Through It" to me! I guess I'll have to check that out.

All is forgiven. As long as they don't forget the umbrella.
HAHA OH GOD. What a goober. <3

We're in the home-stretch! We just hashed out how we're gonna approach the ending scenes, and now it's just getting to the doing of it. High five!
