– Castiel, 5.06 I Believe The Children Are Our Future
Cambions are the offspring of demons by human mothers. They are also known as Catagos (sp?) or the Antichrist. In 5.06 I Believe The Children Are Our Future, Castiel, corrects the idea that the Antichrist is the son of Satan. The Bible, according to Castiel is wrong, and the Anti-Christ is not the son of Lucifer, but demon spawn born of humans. This lineage makes them incredibly powerful and with lucifer on the rise, they become more powerful, so powerful they are capable of "killing the Host of Heaven with one word". Because of this Castiel is insistent that Jesse Turner - a cambion - must be killed.
