In Response To: New theory...way out there...but good! *SP* (Warbow)

I like your theory explaining why the Covenant consider Halo holy. Not bad. I would like to suggest a mild alternative: the Covenant stumbled upon Halo, they didn't see it in their night sky before then. Basically I don't believe that the Forerunners would build an important artifact/weapon/research center like that within eyesight of other intelligent life. It's sort of like our Area51, it's out of the way and nobody is welcome. Perhaps they came across one in their travels and adopted some of the symbols on their backs at that time. Something like that.

One other thing. The Forerunner=Human Ancestor link is too much of a strech. It's not just you, it's everyone, so don't take it personally. :-)

Look at our human history, at any point do you see some sort of alien race intersecting our evolutionary line? No. Single cell organism - little rat monkeys - "Lucy" - Humans - Spartans. That's the line. There can be no evolutionary link between the two races.

****
Humans are previous Forerunners, survivors who were on one of the Halos during the last activation, They did not approve of the destruction of all sentient life. They left the Halo and landed on Earth and restarted their lives at a lower level of technology. They have long forgotten their past and are now expanding back into the universe. The reason no one was living on the Halo Installation number 4 is because it was a research facility and all the research on the Flood was completed thousands of years ago.
