So, here we go guys. I was reading the halo books again and I read something that lead me to think that the forerunners have to be humans.
In "halo: the flood" 343 guilty spark says some things to the chief that point this out.
He says stuff like "you were here 10,000 years ago (or something of that manner) And you said wait so i've been waiting" Read it youll see what I mean.

I don't know how that might be able to tie in with the whole MC dying thing.
Let me know what you guys think.

Well, this quote will show you show you that Humans= Forerunner, as GS says himself:

Guilty Sparks:

The installation was specifically built to study and contain the Flood. Their survival as a race was dependent on it. I am grateful to see that some of them survived to reproduce.


of course someone is gonna say "GS is talking about being happy to see the FLOOD reproduce. but i have another quote that proves it IS the humans he's talking about........lets sit back and watch

I've read the the flood several times, and 343 Guilty Spark does not say that.

He is talking about the Flood. "them" is the flood.

Opog is correct, besides, just by reading the sentence can you determine that.

For those of you that believe that the Forerunner are humans, can i just ask some questions (this doesn't mean i disagree with you)?

1. Do you believe that Forerunner directly evolved/devolved into Humans? If so How in that time period (don't you dare timetravel or i will repeatedly crush your head with a warthog)

2. Does all your evidence come from 343GS? If so, isn't he also quoted saying that all his creators [Forerunner s(it's out of context here)] were killed as planned? If not, what are your other sources?

3. Wouldn't we have some basic evolution evidence based on "Human = Forerunner."

them is not the Flood. The last subject referred to is the Forerunner. If it was talking about the flood why does it say "reproduce?" The flood don't reproduce, they infect cells. You wouldn't call a virus spreading "reproduction"

SpecOpsGrunt is rite. Theyre saying that the Forerunner needed to contain and study the Flood because if they didnt, the Flood would eliminate the race by infecting and ultimately killing the Forerunner's race.
