Do some research.

Halo.bungie.org would be a good resource for you - Check out their "Halo Story" section.

Some were kept for testing..... for a cure, or to perfect them.

Or he could be referring to the humans.

He is not programmed to destroy all of them. Do you not get the point of the Halo rings? They destroy all of the life in the galaxy just to keep some of the Flood alive. He is designed to keep the Flood alive, just not running rampant through the galaxy destroying sentients everywhere. Thus, his programming would make him quite glad to see that some survived.

If you have reason to believe that any of this is inaccurate, please message me, and only if you have good reasons, which I would also like you to tell me.

In halo 1 guiltyspark leads you through flood infested corridoors. near the beginning of the level he says something to this simialr to this, "I am glad to see that some of them survived." This could refer to the Flood but why would guiltyspark say that becuase he is programmed to help destroy the flood?

that is all there is to it.

That is stupid. If you would actually bother to get accurate information, in the book "The Flood," at the start of the Library, 343 Guilty Spark says "The installation was specifically built to study and contain the Flood. Their survival as a race was dependent on it. I am grateful to see that some of them survived to reproduce." He says, specifically, that they were trying to keep the Flood alive. Not to mention, it is quite clear that he is reffering to the Flood about how he is glad some of them survived. Please, do not argue with me unless you have evidence, just like I use evidence, and I think it is quite obvious who has won this argument.

Yeah, I just noticed that today, when I was looking for the quote in my last post, I was going to read through because I did not remember Master Chief asking him that. If he did not ask him then this is quite interesting, it goes along with "grafted to machines your builders did not understand" or something like that from the Marathon series. Good work, Adam1490.
