Whose orders was she re-educated on? Michael's? If so, was he planning to kill her the whole time? If it was his end but not his means, perhaps that's why the general lack of faith in their methods.
If it wasn't his authority, then...hand of god? Finally.
I do hope we get the pay-off of who pulled the boys from the convent. It doesn't look like it was Lucifer, and if it was Michael, I think he would have left Sam there for Lucifer.
I think the convent is the only place we saw the hand of God. So far.
Time travel always makes my hair hurt.
And we're not sure yet -- absolutely positively -- that it was the hand of god that yanked from the convent, are we? Although I guess we're running out of other likely suspects.

And if we're dealing with time travel, some of the current unlikely suspects could become likely ones later on.

::weeps in the corner and holds her hair::
Exactly! I mean, what's to stop Lucifer from time travel and snatching Sam from the convent?
Which is why I loathed it when they did this crap on Stargate. What a cluster f***.
::waves sonic screwdriver threateningly and shaves head::
Ana and Castiel's resurrections are as yet unexplained too, right?
The Anna that is no more is the present day Anna. Her individual timeline is unchanged, since she didn't meet or do anything to 1978 Anna. So she doesn't have to exist dually, the 1978 Anna is unharmed, presumably hanging out in Heaven.
I do agree that they didn't make time travel harder. I mean, we may find after this that Cas is pretty much a done deal, and in that case Anna's decision is much more of a hail mary. I'm willing to handwave that Michael can manage it a little better because Right Hand of God or whatever.
It's a shame that Michael didn't bring Cas back too, rather than Cas having to find his own way, but I guess that's what you get when you defy Heaven.
