Objective?

This article isn't objective enough and many people might find it offfensive. Many sentances makes it clear that this religion is false, I didn't see anything like that on Wikipedias page on Christianity or Islam etc. I demand that you change it now! Baryon15 11:23, 16 May 2009 (UTC)

We are here to present information on Halo. I don't know about anyone else here, but I don't give a damn how "objective" (politically correct) the friggin' information is. We are not Wikipedia. You find it offensive, you will go somewhere else. No one put a gun to your head and told you to read this page.

Well if you have any covenant friends, tell them not to read this page.

Also, the Great Journey is a false religion and ITS A VIDEO GAME!--Kre 'Nunumee 17:04, 28 August 2009 (UTC)

Forerunner great journey; truth in terminals?

As I was reading through the terminal texts, I had a feeling that the "Great Journey" that was referred to by the forerunners was not the activation of the Halos, but rather the repopulation of all the planets in the Galaxy with the lifeforms preserved on the Ark.

Was that not what the Librarian was doing? Indexing and archiving all lifeforms in the Galaxy in order to reseed them once the flood was neutralized? Am I the only one who interpreted the Great Journey in this way?

Covenant Religion?

Why exactly was the page moved to "Covenant Religion"? The title "Great Journey" is totally canon, isn't it? - JEA13 ^[iTalk] 13:59, September 16, 2010 (UTC)

The "Great Journey" is what they're trying to achieve, not the name of their religion.- 5əb'7aŋk^(7alk) 14:19, September 16, 2010 (UTC)

Post Schism

Would someone mind writing something about this religion in the Covenant remnant? I don't really feel like I personally have enough information to start this. Maybe someone else would be better informed and more able start this? Weeping Angel (talk) 13:00, 21 June 2013 (EDT)

The Path

Since Halo 2 the Covenant have been referring to something called "the Path" (usually in the context of "walking the Path"). It hasn't been quite clear if this is an aspect of their religion (the spiritual path toward the Great Journey) or what they call the religion itself, but Broken Circle seems to indicate it's both:

"This will bring confirmation," Mken whispered. "This will bring many to the Path. Those who see it will believe." (p 124)

"We all serve the Path together, according to our stations." (p 223)

Many still regard the Forerunners as holy and hold to some form of the Path... (p 304)

The phrase "The Path to the Great Journey" also appears a few times, though "the Path" is more oft-used and concise. I kind of like the current page title because of its descriptiveness ("the Path" is much more ambiguous) though. --Jugus (Talk | Contribs) 00:58, 20 November 2014 (EST)
