Hey - Of all things i don't understand its this... Any worthey oponent of the covenant has been given the opportunity to join they're ranks.

Why havn't humans been given the same offer? Has it something to do with the fact that they are known by the installations and their monitors as 'RECLAIMERS'?????

its got to do something with us being smarter than them.

I think the answer to that is the main mystery.

What I don't understand is why they can't activate the rings themselves, you know? Put the 'Sacred Icon' in by themselves?

Because they have butter fingers?
Obviously the installations are only in tune with the DNA of the reclaimers

they could kill a human and use his hand...you all saw how tartarus did that.

Cool, my own little box!

I think its too late for that because we (Master Chief) has already destroyed a Halo.

Although perhap the human NEEDs to be alive...Why did he not kill miranda keys when he was trying to get her to insert the index

Maybe the convenant were like the mongols.

You comply with their rules, you can live under their rule in peace.

You fight back, they destroy your existence.

Seems reasonable eh?

Maybe we were already too advanced to be adapted into their Covenant? Or we were too ugly? We have our own religions and that might conflict with their takeover?

The religions we have might actually be a good reason because I don't think the pope or his followers would bow to some Prophet bended on killing himself and his followers.

But it seems they on purposely att us; and many of the elites called us "worthy enemies" so i think its some hidden prophet agenda

Most of the other members of the covenent were also taken by force?

in the halo 2 Collectors edition CftU booklet it show that the covenant rank and file dont understand this either
it is probably something the prophets see in us (the forerunners) that would compromise the position of control that the prophets have- the majority of the covenant would follow their gods before following the prophets
