[color=yellow]First off, I don't need an answer to the subject line. It was mearly an attention catcher title. Secondly, I could go either way on this. I'm just putting it out there for those who say that the Covenant would never attack their own Gods:)[/color]
I've posted in THIS thread in the past to show possible proof of a strong connection ( found in First Strike ) between the Humans and the Forerunners. If you're lost on that, click the link above. It's a really quick explanation of what I'm talking about:)
Now some have said that the Humans are not the Forerunners simply because the Covenant are in a "Holy War" against the Humans. How would it be possible for the Covenant to be fighting their Gods???
Well, here is a brief possible explanation as to why. We already know that the Covenant are using Human technology; yet, it is forbidden to use anything Human since the Humans are a front to the Forerunner religion... at least that is what the Prophets have told the Covenant factions. What if the Prophets found out that the Humans were the Forerunners... however you wish to explain that.
This would end the Empire as it is. The Prophets, the weakest of all the Covenant species, would no longer hold the power. Up untill now, the Prophets are the ONLY species who EXCLUSIVELY know the will of the Gods ( that is a huge statement ). In order to protect themselves, the Prophets declare war on the very beings their empire and religion is built around. This would eliminate the threat of them loosing power, and it would keep the Covenant Empire together.
