This is God vs satan represented with symbols.

the men tau list  tau can have 2 meanings here : people with the mark of the beast or with the mark of salvation.

The tyger-tyger secret society is similar to the illuminati : rising red john , the anti-christ
All the description i make of the suspects is literally the meaning of their names

Bret Stiles is the leader , he is the only one with the occult knowledge to contact the spirit world.
Brett Partridge was supose to be his succesor . They are killers but they also gather souls for satans. ( brace of Partridge )


Gale Bertram is the prophet of the organisation.
Ray Huffman has the task to transform the chosen one into red john and to protect him.

Kimball Chow is red john because the symbolism of his name is :
Kimball : Leader of the Warriors
Cho:butterfly:symbol for the anti-christ.

God's people is the cbi and all the helpers.

Patrick Jane represent the repenter that is now within christ.
Wayne Rygby : with great power come great responsabilities
Grace Van pelt : Living grace
Teresa Lisbon is like the representation of mandkind in the God vs satan war. Jane must protect Lisbon at all cost . If they get her he will become their slave. Cho froze , he had lisbon but it wont happen again. Jane will have to sacrifice himself to stop red john and protect lisbon.

Sorry I don't know all the seasons/episode numbers to reference here, but didn't Roy Tagliano (Red John) supposedly travel around in a pick-up truck? Wasn't there a pick-up truck stored at the cabin where Lorelei took Patrick to hide out, she said it had belonged to Red John?

Did anyone find it coincidental that Reede Smith drove up in a pick-up truck when he killed Bob Kirkland? 

Is it possible Kirkland killed Brett Partridge, assuming he was on the "list" Kirkland had? Kirkland is torturing Partridge when Lisbon shows up, pushes Partridge in the closet, hides in the other room, tazers Lisbon from behind, drags her off and paints a copy cat face on Lisbon to cover up the murder?  He has the voice to be a pretend Red John on the telephone with Patrick and he has no reason to kill Lisbon....

I find it coincidental that Kirkland uses a tazer on his victim, drags him off and tortures him...... 

the pick-up truck and the tazer have me wondering.....

So this is not an elaborate theory, just some thoughts.

I think that it's suspicious that Stiles is the only suspect that we haven't seen this season. I'm not certain that he is Red John but I believe that Red John was a Visualize member at one time, or still a member. It's possible that the "tiger, tiger" conspiracy group are all Visualize members. I believe the next episode is about a murder at Visualize, I wonder if Stiles is the next Red John victim?

When considering that Bob Kirkland asked every victim "have you seen me before? Are you sure?" before killing/torturing them, I believe that Bob suspected his twin brother of being Red John. He told Jane that his brother was drinking and got sucked into a cult (Visualize) where he later became a prominent figure in the cult, mastering the con arts of manipulation and brainwashing.

My last theory: http://www.whoisredjohn.com/See-a-theory-Red-John/6800

Just a new thing i forgot to add.

"He is man"= Heisman, the Heisman trophy is given to football players and in Ray's office he has a trophy, plus Bruno Heller said "RJ likes the cold" and Heisman sounds like iceman.

 I think that  "Tiger Tiger"  are Red John's hypnotic command words and there are many killers who killed under hypnosis.

I still just can't get over how silly it was of Patrick to have told Lisbon his actual list (assuming the fact that we are almost certain that it was his real list). He put her in such danger. And he had to of known that it would get around. How could/can he be so certain that his team (Van Pelt, Rigsby, Cho) are all that innocent themselves?! Patrick is smart, but this action of his seemed naïve.

At this stage, I just hope it isn't Reede Smith. I nearly died when it was him who got out of the car last night to kill Kirkland.
