John and Mary are a reference to Jesus' parents from the New Testament. (In the Bible, Mary's husband is named Joseph, not John) John Winchester baptizes Dean and Sam into the life of hunting monsters, and Mary gives birth to the two men who will decide the fate of the world. As can be seen in the progression of the series, many of the demons, ghosts and enemies of Sam and Dean are based on legends and stories from different cultures. The series in particular has a Biblical storyline, and as depicted by the names of the Winchesters' parents, the brothers were born to live and fight during the Apocalypse, as the saviors of the world and mankind. Although the series itself was not specifically designed to offend anyone, there is an underlying storyline of angels and demons, and their fight for Earth in the end times, and to show how things can be divided.
