Now, I do realize that religious discussion is not allowed, this is simply to state the similarities between the stories. i honestly, wish I could have found the excellent post that was made that included seven whole sections, but I cant seem to locate it. This stems from that...so thanks to that creator.

I was thinking about the Ark and how many believe it to be a safe haven. I also thought of how Cortana is in the clutches of the Evil Gravemind and upon how it seems that the Flood themselves are a parallel to sin itself. "I am a momument to all your sins"

So, what if perhaps...the Ark is a parallel to the Garden of Eden. What if Gravemind is a parallel to the Devil and Cortana to Eve. This could mean that perhaps, Gravemind does indeed taint Cortana, and eventually the Master Chief who can stand for perhaps Adam as well as Jesus and other important figures.

Basically, this theory is to point out that perhaps, if my assumptions are correct, that the Flood [or sin] were created within the Ark [or the Garden of Eden]. Now I am do not know much about the stories of the Bible, so perhaps someone else can clear them up or disprove me. This really was afterall just some random thought.

Also sorry if it has been said before, but I havent seen anything on it...also sorry that this does tread on loose soil with the whole religious speak, however I want to stress again that it is not ment to offend anyone.

The Ark is parallel to the Flood, as in the ARK in Noah's Ark that saved him from the flood, but i like th devil and eve theory other then the Ark being Eden

Well, a lot of the games word choices and simple sections do relate to the Bible in fact.

Also, if I can find the arguement that one very intelligent man made about how the Flood may not relate to Noah and the Ark but rather to sin, i think that will help.

Hmmm, another odd thought...why is he called, "The Gravemind?" It isnt Gravemind, but "The Gravemind." Much like, "The Devil," as we do not simply say Devil.

I'l admit there are similarities to the ark and the flood, but this discussion is taking it too far !!

saying there are parallels in the game here and their in relation to the Bible is rediculous,
especially this gravemind cortana stuff.

You are making wild speculation, and you probably don't even read your bible !!

Avoid posting stuff like this in the future this is what Bungie is trying to prevent !!

Hmmm..well for one I dont really read my Bible so you are correct on that. However, I do know a good deal about it. Also, I read that one guys post which was amazing, but saddly, it has been deleted i fear. Also, every single theory here is speculation. I am simply stating my own concept upon how it could be possible that the Flood were created, rather then discovered, by the Forunner. It was a random thought stemming from the biblical thoughts running through my mind, you dont have to believe it. Thats why its a theory...much like the theory of evolution which I also think can fit into the game...but thats a different story.
