Thinking about it now, I wonder if my former friend just liked the earlier seasons of SPN? I don't know for sure, obviously you would, but it seems to me it started as more of a "two guys on the road, wackiness and some darkness ensues" show than "literal war with God" show. At the same time, I remember noticing the contradiction at the time, unless it's a false memory. It's also not as though evangelicals are never hypocritical.
Not that religious people can't like the show. I had religious friends who watched it, too. But they were normal "I happen to have a religion" religious, not evangelicals who thought everything against their religion was bad.
so I'd expect there would be more friendship to PG kind of stories out there. The more explicit stuff of course would exist but if you're not into that there would be plenty of other things to focus on.
Yeah. There was actually a ton of explicit stuff, but you had to know where to look for it, and there were lots of debates on when explicit was and wasn't okay. Two of the sites I frequented didn't have a lot of explicit fic, but one of them definitely did. That one was very much not fussy about canon pairings, though. (The site may have been founded as a rebuttal to the more canon-centric ones. However, I don't know that for sure.)
