god im soooo tired of this "humans are forerunner" theory. Its NOT new, you are NOT the first person to think of it, and its NOT right. and heres why:
to address your points,
1) 343 guilty spark did not ask an elite to activate halo in halo 1 because only a RECLAIMER (aka the human species) can do so. Reclaimers are not Forerunner.
2) How in the hell does a floating camera (that uses fans by the way, if you look close, it uses fans to stay aloft, not some magical power) have anything to do with 343 guilty spark and 2401 penitent tangent? (other than it floats)
3) Tartarus made Keyes activate the index because she is human, aka a RECLAIMER not forerunner.
4) If the prophets knew that humans were forerunners (which, by the way, there is no evidence to support) then wouldnt they worship the humans instead of trying to destroy and kill their blessed forerunner gods?
5) The stupid prophets vying for power among themselves has nothing to do with humans being forerunner.
So there you have it. that is why humans are NOT forerunner1) Forerunner is the Covenant word for them. GS never says Forerunnerat first, he says 'creators'. The only mention he makes of them is after his 'capture' by the Covenant, where he would have picked up this name for them.
2) I agree it's nothing to do with the Monitors
3) Reclaimer and Forerunner may not be referring to different species, but perhaps to different groups. Two people can be French and Japanese, the only difference between them can be the country in which they live.
4) Why would we get left behind from the Great Journey? What possible reason could the Gods have to leave these stragglers? They must have angered the Gods, or they oppose them. We should finish their holy work. Remember, the Devil was once an Angle. Yet few worship him.
5) Possibly, and not just the Prophets either.
