This question contains spoilers… (view spoiler)

D.J. MacHale It wasn't a conscious decision. But having been raised a Catholic, those stories and concepts are pretty much ingrained so they bubble to the surface every so often. It's just part of my DNA. But I did begin with the concept that the Travelers were actually some form of "Guardian Angels"...who didn't know they were. And of course, Saint Dane's backstory pretty much follows the fall-from-grace concept of the devil. But I didn't intend to draw any Christian-specific analogies.
