In the halo game guide i noticed that the story of the covenant was that they were coming to destroy earth for religious beliefs. If this is true then what religion are the covenants. Is it a mixture of different religions like earth, and if thats true then why cant they coincide with us?I mean if they can work together to be a strong force and not worie about different religions then why don't they ask the U.N.S.C. to join them?


any thoughts....any at all...?

we offend their gods. either it's because we're primates, we smell bad, or we're primitive, something.

Isn't it ironic that the Covenant are like, six different races, not one single main race, and that they didn't try to convert humans or anything? Maybe that's not ironic but raises many question, like, which race started this "covenant" and how the other races joined.

Oh well, maybe Halo 2 will solve all this.

read the books folks. Their "gods" are the forerunners and their "holy relics" are anything that the forerunners left behinf. Case in point, the Halo construct. As for why they seem to not like us, I havent the foggiest. Maybe, when they made first contact there was a relic in posession of some humans. Maybe the humans made it into a outhouse or something. I know that would offend MY religeous beliefs......if I had any :P.

Maybe our god b!tchslapped their god/s. Or when the fore-runners came to Earth one of our cave-men threw a spear and stuck one of the fore-runners in the eye.

They hate us because we are simply another power. It's kinda like the US and the Soviet Union. Exept it's a hot war and they are a different species and they don't really know how to use their technology, and we do......yeah that's basically it.
