While clearly the show has borrowed characters from Judo-Christian belief I always felt Kripke was pretty clear about the fact they would not be bound by any 'rules' from religion itself. But this may have been me reading too much into your comment.
Oh, sorry! That was a failure to communicate on my part. I didn't mean that the show should and/or does follow the rules of Judo-Christian belief, it obviously doesn't. I was just wondering if the rule was in Judo-Christian-Islamic beliefs that God can't have faults... it seems a stupid question perhaps, because I'm pretty sure the the answer is "God is infallible" - but I'm not religious, and it's been a long time since I actively learned about the major religions (I was probably 12 or something, seriously.) So, it was just a legit question on my part unrelated to how God appears in SPN... where quite obviously deities are allowed to be assholes and no rules apply.
I mean yes he's been mad with him for longer but when he was able to forgive Cas in the past it was really part of that transition to seeing Cas as family rather than just a friend/ally, because Dean can forgive anything of family.

Very true.
