Lol, notice I said "supposedly"! ;) As in, if that had been angelic intervention there (which I thought it was supposed to be open to ~interpretation~ back then, BEFORE the angels became all too real and concrete and began saying the 2000 year stuff), we were meant to believe it would have been Michael, the only angel mentioned by name, the one we saw a picture of, lampooning something like that guy was lampooned...I think that Dean certainly had his mind opened up a little by that incident/was impressed by the coincidence, or so he seemed to me (again, I haven't watched it a billion times, lol)....I thought that at the end we were meant to believe that both brothers could be right--Dean was right that the "angel" that Sam had seen was only a spirit, not a real angel, but then at the end it would appear that there may be greater forces actually at play, and that Sam perhaps could be in the right as well....
And I was just saying that Sammy wasn't necessarily a Catholic believer because of the parts of it that he memorized, lots of types of Christianity out there....although I certainly wouldn't be ashamed to claim him as one! ;)
And heh, that kind of reminds me of the Artemis Fowl book series, for the longest time the author, Eoin Colfer (this hilarious Irish man), was quite adamant that the central characters Artemis and Holly would never kiss or have a romance, saying that was gross because they were different species (one being human, the other a fairy)--I even saw him say this at a signing in person, and heard reports that he repeated the same thing pretty much verbatim at other signings--and then suddenly in the last book, they DID kiss and show canonical feelings that were more than just the close friendship they had had before! I mean they were time traveling and not in the normal situation, but it was still very shocking, and I'm still not sure when or why the author changed his mind about this point....though I'm certainly not complaining, since I've shipped them all along regardless! ;)

What did Kripke say later when angels did appear?
