The thing that still bothers me (and it's probably supposed to) is that Cas, acknowledging that he'd already failed to notice the warning sign when RoboSam walked away from Dean without making contact, asks for a sign immediately after Dean--Righteous Man, Michael Sword, true servant of Heaven, THAT Dean--has just told him not to go through with his plan and used a very New Testament definition of free will to do it. That's why I don't have a problem with Dean calling Cas a child in 7.01-2. Cas is acting a lot like a human child here; he knows deep down that Dean is right, but he doesn't want to hear it, so he ignores Dean's answer and gets himself into trouble that even Dean can't fix.
