Supernatural: Angels Are As Bad As Demons





      Since Season 1 we've only seen the Demons of Supernatural and were rightly afraid of them as well as hated them for how they tortured our Winchester Boys. Yet if there's a Hell there has to be a Heaven (the whole Yin-Yang, balance of the universe thing). So in Season 4, Angels have entered the world stage and have been a fixture ever since. However, they've proven to be as deceitful and cruel as their evil counter parts, the Demons. So who is more Evil?

The Gang meets the REAL desperate house wives.

      If you've read the Bible or at least excerpts from the internet then you'd find that those angels are nothing like the Precious Moments angels or the angels you find on get well cards. Angels come in different flavors: from tricksters to creatures of wrath and destruction. The angels of Supernatural are more like bureaucrats/soldiers with wings. But Demons? Well quite accurate to say that they pretty evil. They don't hide who they are, they know exactly what they're supposed to do and that's to cause pain and misery. 

It's the quiet secretary angels you should watch out for.

      Angels say they're above human emotion but that's not what I've seen. Angels seem to me whiney, co-dependent babies who started the Apocalypse because Daddy (God) just left them behind without explanation or instructions. God designed the angels to obey. He can't have every living thing have free will or else there would be chaos. However, the angels just decided to do whatever they want so I guess God made them with free will but didn't tell them they had a choice. You would think that since they can't possess a human (or just any human) unless invited in but also has the free will to kick them out that angels would be polite. Nope. With the exception of Cas and Anna, angels prefer to use scare tactics to get a stubborn vessel (like Sam and Dean) to say "yes" or sometimes use lies and disguise themselves to trick someone into letting them in. Demons just walk right in and wear people like a suit until they are forcefully removed. 

Pull my finger...

          Demons seem like the angels in the respect that the lesser are like sheep. They need leadership but when two big players like Crowley and Abbadon are wrestling for control, most demons prefer to stay out of the fray until there's a victor. Angels as a species have this instinct to immediately form factions and everyone has to either pick a side or get an angel blade in their gut. Join or die? I'd prefer to stay out of it. The irony is that some demons can become a little good. Meg likes to have a cause to follow. Unlike other demons when she believes in someone (like Lucifer or even Castiel) she'll stand behind them until they fall or she does. I applaud Meg's loyalty. If only angels could do the same. Then there's Crowley. He was ready to become human even after all the evil he had done. He even snuck a few syringes of human blood just so he could feel. 

This was a case of identity theft...

         Angels are all over the place and they are feeling pretty wrathful. If they're not careful they'll destroy half the universe. Their dad would not be happy about that! I think God left because every time he chooses a favorite the angels get jealous and throw a fit. Angels are supposed to watch over the human race but they do so with disdain, calling them monkeys or apes or slime. Castiel loves humanity. He loves how even in the darkest of times humans can rise above and conquer it all. Sure he sees we have flaws but he's cool with that. 

Meg was a ballsy bitch & we loved her (as did Cas)

       So who is more evil? It's a tie! As we've seen not all angels are good and not all demons are bad. It varies from demon to angel on who is good and who is evil. So just because there are a few rotten apples doesn't mean the whole barrel is rotten. 

His Lowness has sunk as low as he could go...
