Hey, give me a little credit. :-) With all this talk about Dean and his lost, beautiful soul? Gee. I wonder why I would use this icon.
Something else Dean and I have in common: subtlety is not our strong suit.
I am curious what thought process (exactly) led to your search for this verse.
I don't remember the thought processes exactly, but it was something along the lines of "Nooo!!! Dean!!!!! Don't do it!!!!!" Then I started thinking that doing such a thing was sort of referenced in the Bible. I remembered what Paul said about trading his own salvation for the salvation of others if he could--which of course, he couldn't, and it's not necessary, because salvation only comes through Christ, but the sentiment was there, and I sort of thought, wow. Dean is being almost Paul-like, in the boundaries of the SPN universe, anyway.
That's something I do when my shows start overloading me with twitchy theology or misuse of scripture and such--I have to find an actual verse in my RL canon *g* to re-ground myself.
