I don't think it makes much sense that John is the Jesus figure in this show. He doesn't really say anything meaningful, and doesn't have followers. I think it's more likely that he is a messenger or a demon or something. It's more likely that Shaun is suppose to be Jesus. Or maybe even Mitch?

Also, Monad could be a near anagram for daemon which wiki defines as "supernatural beings between mortals and gods, such as inferior divinities and ghosts of dead heroes." Or more fitting, "a malignant spirit that can seduce, afflict, or possess humans." The stuff he was mumbling about in episode one where the motel owner is waving the gun around makes it appear that John might not be so good either.
