The angels were playing the brothers against each other.
Which is really sad, to me anyway, because my view of angels has never been the way that Kripke is portraying them.
In fact, I don't think ultimately that it was wrong for Sam to be using his mental powers to exorcise people rather than the knife.
True. Sam did have a point, when he told Dean that this way he was saving the host.
Third, I know it can be interpreted different ways, but I believe that what Ruby said about it being Sam all along may have meant that he didn't need her demon blood to make him stronger, she just used it to addict him to her, but his powers would have gotten stronger on their own.
I don't think he ever needed her demon blood at all. Didn't she compare him to Dumbo? He didn't need the feather, he could fly all along. Same with Sam. She made him believe that it was the blood, but he had these abilities inside him all along. Which, now that he knows that, gives me hope that we won't have to go through another "detox" with Sam. I believe that his withdrawal reaction was all psychological, it was all in his head. He made himself believe he was a junkie needing a fix. Now he knows better. It was never the blood.
