In Response To: Re: You're not going to like it *SP* (elpolloguapo) : 343GS says "you ARE Forerunner" to mean "you are to be treated : as forerunner" I'm too tired to remember the context (or to look it up right now) but how do you know that Sparky doesn't mean them literally? : Bungie doesn't want us to know for sure, it's not in their interests I recognize those words or at least the sentiment :-) : And there's way too much conflicting evidence, you can't just ignore the
I don't think that I am ignoring things. : As for the Cortana Letters (from Halopedia): "It should be noted that
It doesn't matter. What matters is that some person or several people at Bungie were thinking along the lines that I indicated. There is no accidental reason to mention evidence of lost Human colonies/civs. You don't mention them unless you are thinking along those lines. So we know that the thought that Humans had an extraterrestrial history was present right at the start of the Halo story. You generally come up with the important themes of a story at the beginning. The lost colony theme may never have gone away. It may have mutated so that we became the lost colony. The reason that I speculate that we are their lost homeworld is because its obvious that we evolved on Earth so I wouldn't like a story that said that we were planted on a foreign plant and came to call it our own. Bungie may not care about that. But I ask you, what is your idea for the Forerunner mysteries that our discovery might answer? I'd also like to add that I only use quotations because I want people to see the actual words said. To often we HBOers argue from memory or dim recolections of what we thought was said. Sometimes we thing that a consensus we achieved through debate must have actually been stated somewhere. I prefer to use the actual text simply to avoid error. I don't like arguing through faith or revelation. I prefer reason. Strangely, so does Truth! He reasoned his way into his 'faith' :-)
