BUT. Destiny cannot be changed, according to Castiel, and so there was no way Dean could have changed things, they were meant to be and thus they were, if this is true, then what exactly is Dean gonna stop, if whatever is to happen will happen?
Yep, there needs to be more meta on the free will v. destiny angel in the SPN universe. But as presented, SPN seems to be a determinist universe, right? Dean couldn't change the past (and thus there was not much danger to him doing any damage, etc.), so one can only guess that means that Dean can't "change" the future. So this means in my head that Dean IS DESTINED to save SAM. That's all I'm saying :) So all of this was supposed to happen (man, okay I feel like a BSG tagline now....'all of this has happened before and all of this will happen again' destiny yadda yadda)
I love your theory on Ruby. Yes!
And haha. Kripke loves to play with his fans. They like incest? We'll just through some of that in there, lol :D This episode was absolute fanservice, and full of anvils and and shameless exposition and just full of complete awesome.
