Subject: What if humans and convenant are both forerunners?

It is known that the forerunners activated the Halo's and destroyed all sentient life. Now, what if whoever the creator is saw that the forerunners were too advanced for their own good? What if the creator decided to separate the forerunner species into mind(covenant), and body(humans)?

Now, the covenant is not really a race, it is more of an alliance of many different species. The forerunners would of course be the prophets. Though seemingly corrupted, they had the intellectual power to harness forerunner technology and discover the Halo's and space travel long before we did. Though they have no technology of their own creation, they have learned how to adapt and use forerunner technology long before we even discovered it.

As for Humans, we would be the body, the strength. We started out very primitive, but we were strong. We have the ability to produce a huge army without having to turn to other species for help.

I believe that if this theory is true, which I am not sure of myself, that the Prophets and Humans were purposely separated by the creator. This way they cannot collaborate and destroy the world like the forerunners. The problem is that the mind(Prophets), acquired strength through other races, and humans acquired intellect through perseverance and much experimentation. So now both the Prophets and Humans possess most of the power the forerunners do, then they met. They began to fight each other, the mind of the forerunners combined with the strength of many races, with the body of the forerunners combined with intellect gained through work.
