I know that there have been about a million post that have something to do with why the covenant have started the war with the human race, but I have never read anything that suggests that the humans may have been a member of the covenant race that disbanded. Because I think in one of the books it mentions that the Elites and Prophets are the primary races, but they conquer other weaker races. My conclusion is either that stated above, or that they simply want to enslave yet another race.

I think they are just pissed at humans and want to kill them off slowly and painfully.

Nothing wrong with that right?

If you read the book it says something like the gods instructed the covies to kill off the human race

I think humans are the decsendents of the few survivning Forerunners. See, the Forerunners set off the Halos once before and wiped out the flood, therefore, they killed themselves as well. In Halo during the Library level, 343 Guilty Spark says "I'm glad to see that some survived to reproduce" who the heck is he talking about other than you? ( I highly doubt he is thrilled by the survival of the Flood) He also comments on your armor and says that you should upgrade to a better version. humm....version? Also, Cortana says that the ring is made up of materials that are not used by the Covenant. So I think...a few Forerunners survived (don't ask me how) and then settled on Earth, then forgot about their past, and the human race began again...but hey! I'm betting that we'll find out a lot more about the Forerunner and us Humans in Halo 2!!!! Huzzah!!!!

Not to offend you or anyone but I am sick and tired of people quoting that damn floating blue light. It is quite obvious that he is insane, so can you really trust what he says? Didn't think so. In your case he could also be talking about the Flood, though not likely.
