well, i just came up with this, and thought i might share it. some time ago, when the covenant was searching for forerunner artifacts, they found a hologram. the hologram showed them a human-like creature being obliterated by an energy pulse. when they became more advanced, they traveled space, and found humanity. in the books, before destroying the planet they came across, the humans got a message from the covenant that said "your destruction is the will of the gods, and we are their instrument."
time to explain.
the human-like creature is a forerruner, and the energy pulse is halo's weapon. when the covenant saw this, they thought "this creature is being oblitirated by the gods" they mistook the energy pulse for the forerunners, or their spirit, or something. having seen this, the covenant took a dislike for the human creature, when they come across another species that happens to look alot like the thing they saw die, they figure that the gods obliterated them, and so should they. it is their gods' will for us to die, so they start killing. this also fits in with the foreruners being our ancestor in the game.
well, correct me if im wrong..or flame...or something.
