I'm sure this question has been answered before but, why are the humans and the Covenant at war. Why is the Covenant bent on eradicating a race that doesn't pose a super large threat to them, rather than absorbing them like all the other races before them. The Covenant did start the war, after all. I haven't read the books so could someone please give me an explanation?

Good question - it has never been awnserd tho. all you can recive from a question like this is theroys that probly arent true or very accurate at all. its fair to assume truth knows something more than the rest of the covenant about the humans.. maybe even more than what the humans know at this stage about themselfs?

You're right about the Prophets hiding something.

it says in the manual for halo 1 that the covenant claimed the humans were "a blight upon the gods"

You will probably find out along with the rest of us when Halo 3 is released.

Hmmm, maybe its because the humans are descended from the Forerunners and the Prophets don't want the Covenabt to find out

This is the line from the book (Your destruction is the the will of the Gods...and we are their instrument.)
