(In a way, with his refusal to kill Sam, Dean even rejected being his brother's keeper. I mean, if you take John's instructions as the word of god)
Dude, seriously, that's just hot. (Um. "Hot" in this context="well-thought-out and resonant!" I like meta a lot?)
Cain was asked that question after he had already killed his brother- Dean's death-warrant is already signed, and it was Sam's fault. And while Cain was seduced to evil by hatred and jealousy of his brother, Sam may be seduced by love and a desire to protect- what an inversion!

I don't think you're full of shit at all. I think you've made some really great points, and if I wasn't woefully under-read on pre-Genesis Judeo-Christian mythology, I would probably have something useful to say :P
