Me: "OMFG, Dude... wtf!"
AbolitionofMan: "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to betray you."
Me: "That's the 4th time in this game alone!"
Chris: "Third, besides he had the flag I was trying to stop him, how was I supposed to know you were there."
Me: "I said, 'I got the Flag, don't shoot.'"
Chris: "Well those Wraith shots take a while to reach you."
Me: "You were right next to me, I had killed him and a minute passed before you decided to shoot."
Chris: "Hahahahaha, yeah... that was great."

The Flood pg 6
"Like all members of his caste, 'Fulsamee knew that the Prophets has evolved on a planet which the truth givers (ie Prophets, and don't say it isn't) had previously inhabited."
Also alot of Covenant language derives from the Forerunner and their symbols so its only natural that they appear on the Covenant.
This is what it says about the Prophets:
The role of the Prophets, for as long as can be recalled, is to archive, explore and locate Forerunner technology and artifacts. These intelligent, highly evolved beings are physically weak, hence their need for Elite allies. The pact allows the prophets to advance their search through conquest and occasionally assimilation of species whose homeworlds or solar systems contain Forerunner architecture or technology, often unguessed at by the resident species. Prophet ceremony and purpose is not generally known to the Covenant population, most of whom simply trust in their wisdom to further the goals and territory of the Covenant.
Unless I cannot read it says NOTHING about having evolved on a Forerunner planet. Now, onto The Flood. You are correct in that quote however, yet that does not make it so. Would you not lie to your own races claiming to be as close to as possible to what you consider Gods? This is the Prophets way of almost securing thier place at the head of the Covenant. I'm not convinced in the least bit. Also, I agree about the symbols, they use them as a sign to show what they beleive.
