"Nah, i just checked them now, it's different. His poem there is about him repenting for his crimes against god and <inaudible word> and having to see death and all that jazz."
i read the in another forum and if he talks about god how does he know about god? did the forerunners (if they are humans) create him? was the flood some forerunner experiment gone bad?

I think this falls under the category of "Theories some of us might have had yet we just don't say them because they just sound crazy." I've thought this as well...like they intended to use them as a weapon until they got out of control and turned on their masters?

I don't think the Flood are the Forerunners personally, but I do think that Gravemind might be an advanced Flood-Forerunner form.

There are two theories about this.
A: Forerunners created the flood as a bioweapon of some sort.
B: Forerunners found the flood, and studied them. The flood broke out, and well, you wee the result.

The Forerunners discovered the flood on Threshold.

there is no way any infection form could live on the gas giant. it would be crushed. and how did the flood get from threshold all the way to delta halo? the forerruners were stupid enough to spread them throughout the galaxy?

The DVD that came with the LE Halo 2.

The Infection form is the largest form that the flood can make without using other biomass. There may be different kinds of flood that can survive on a gas giant.

Halo 3: Collapse
Chapter 20, Revelations, is up (update 11-14-10)
The Mirratord

It's "crimes against God and Man."

It was, interestingly enough, in the Cortana letters as well.

By the way, the Flood were simply researched on Threshold. How could they have possibly formed there? Besides, if the Forerunners were at war with the flood, don't you think that Threshold would be in Flood-controlled space? It'd be kinda hard to build a halo there...
