It's basically "this is how the game works" in code form.

Now, in the quantum moment before the closure, when all become one. One moment left. One point of space and time.

I know who you are.

You are Destiny.

Here's an example if I was using JavaScript:

Good morning
Now, if this were on a web page, the 'source code' to display this message would be:
<script type="text/javascript">
{
document.write("<b>Good morning</b>");
}
</script>
Do you see now? Above is the 'source code' that writes the message "good morning" to you.

It's a simple concept.

When he was younger, he was the one who always had the jokes and riddles that would keep the spirits of the Spartans high. Over the years however, his lifetime of combat had hardened him, as it had all of the Spartans. Within Will, John thought, something special had been lost.

Answered this question in that thread, thought it was pretty explanatory

I'm pretty sure the source code is to allow you to have free reign over the engine from a development standpoint. This allows people to make mods and even completely different games using the engine. UT2004 was like that.
Alien Swarm anyone? :D
