Progress can and may have blinded you.

Nothing in the Terminals or the ARG specifically said that us as Homo Sapiens Sapiens aren't Forerunner, however things in the game specifically said that we ARE Forerunner, rather clearly in fact.
Don't pull the comic card out either, there was a species of humanoid on Earth at the time in question that is said to "look just like us if they were wore clothing" and as such, the comic doesn't specifically state that N'chala is Homo Sapiens Sapiens.
Server 5 doesn't say Homo Sapiens Sapiens are the animals they want to save from the firing, however there is more evidence (from the Terminals) that all life they found on Earth was worthy of being saved and that every one of them must be "indexed" and sent to the ark, JUST LIKE THE STORY OF THE ARK FROM THE BIBLE! Also, the HUMANS on the ARK in the STORY DIRECTLY CONSTRUCTED IT. The deity that "told them to do it" didn't build it. I doubt that cave people are capable of creating a large space station beyond the rim of the Milky Way Galaxy.
Then there is the Bestarium which was made from translated (somewhat barely) documentation from various sources, a compilation if you will, that was assembled by an unknown entity. I do not think it is entirely Forerunner in nature, as in Halo 2 and shown in Halo 3 all humans are Reclaimers however the Bestarium lists Master Chief as the sole Reclaimer, hinting that this was assembled after the events of Halo 1. It could have been done by any number of individuals despite it's Forerunner appearance, we just can't say. Heck, it could even be ONI created for all we know, ONI does know more than us after all.
None of this "evidence" is solid enough for me, yet it seems that the entire Bungie community has gone rabid and has immediately jumped to the conclusion that we are not Forerunner despite 343GS saying we are specifically just because of IRIS and the Terminals. As I have just pointed out, this sudden influx of information and progress of searching for the truth has blinded the whole community. And remember "Progress CAN blind you" I think it was set up this way to see who would decipher the truth and would jump to conclusions without being told anything directly. And in so doing would end up discarding what IS said directly simply because it doesn't agree with theories based off of vague backstory pieces that don't say anything for certain.
And yesh, I have upgraded my flame suit to a class 12. I have noticed that anyone else who shares this belief on Bungie.net is only wearing a class 2 which is ill suited for this kind of work.
