Subject: Flaw In The Story, Or Heretics In Halo 1?

Posted by: Duardo
I'd love to be a 10 year old and tell my mom I'm going on an adventure out into the world catching Pokemon, with her full support. Never mind the fact that there are rapists, criminals, and murders out there, or the fact that I may get killed by a Pokemon.

Luckily I have Pikachu.

You're overlooking something that's really important. "If I'm analyzing this correctly, they think that Halo is some sort of weapon." She's simply not analyzing it correctly.



The Covenant believe that the humans are not worthy of "The Great Journey".

Therefore they think that if "Halo" is activated all life forms unworthy of "The Great Journey" will be wiped out while the ones who are welcomed to "The Great Journey" become "Gods.


So Cortana simply wasn't analyzing it enough!

That's pretty much true. She knew that the Covenant knew that Halo was a weapon, but she didn't know that the Covenant thought that it was also an object with a strong religious significance.

Maybe the covenant know that the halos will kill all life, but those who are worthy will ascend to salvation? They know they will die but are comforted by the fact that they will be saved in the afterlife? But then the arbiter would not be so surprised when he learns what the halos really do. Darn. Still can't find an explanation...

............

Maybe the covenant believe halo is a weapon that will kill all those who are unworthy (humans), and spare all those who are worthy (covenant)?

............

Maybe there's a plot hole? Maybe Cortana is just interpretting some information incorrectly or differently? Maybe she has accessed information only the prophets have access to, making the prophets the only ones who know the truth? I guess we will just have to wait ALL THE WAY UNTIL 2007 to find out the truth.

I like my Covenant like i like my woman, screamin and with a sticky on there face.

so a good question is what exactly do the covenant think the great journey is suppose to do or what is its meaning?

The Great Journey is supposed to be the Covenant's path to Heaven.
