Our Lady of Fandom, Thursday
The pew the kittens were under was still blocked off, though the kittens had opened their eyes and ears by now and were wobbling about their little nest a great deal more. It might have been some effort for Castiel to pull himself away from watching them in order to give the sermon.
He was in better spirits this week -- though that wasn't necessarily saying much. Still, having spent the intervening time watching kittens develop had clearly done him some good.
"Today, I thought I might talk to you for a little while about instinct."
And he did, going into not just the fundamental necessity of instinct to developing life, but also arguments as to whether instincts were genetic, or perhaps a sign of intelligent design. His general thesis seemed to be that these instincts were provided for the earliest of creatures by the Creator, certainly, but possibly as a means of then not feeling bad about ignoring the world almost completely. 'Look', God seemed to be saying. 'I gave you these guidelines, here, way back at the beginning. It's not my fault you're too stupid to pay attention to them.'
In conclusion, Castiel seemed to be saying, listen to your instincts. 'Cause the Lord might not actually give a dead rat's ass about your survival, otherwise.
Cheerful, yeah?
