: Time travel and destiny are very bad things to mess with,

: there as thier tool. Knowing what is soposed to happen
: and changing it would be a good way to get around the
: gods, but what if the gods put it there and had it say
: what they wanted it to say, and therefore making
: anyone who tried to mess with their own destiny
: actually doing the bidding of the gods. That is rather
: sneaky, isnt it? But if it has actully has all the
: info ever, the gods would have destroyed it a long
: time ago. The fact that it still exists(and the fact
: that it is the size it is) proves that the gods want
: it there.(and I think whats in it changes on when and
: who reads it)

: I like that thoery. But you still can argue if you want

That is a good idea also, but neither idea can be proven correct, really. Ever heard the saying "The gods work in strange ways"? I'm not sure where it came from (must've been D&D or something) but it's true. Those gods could have put the codex there for any reason. Since gods are gods, that means that they are all powerful, have no sense of time, and create and destroy whatever they want. The gods could have seen something in the future that caused them to say "let's make a total codex!" or they could have done it as a prank on humanity, etc.

Any idea can be true. The gods are a strange bunch. They can see things that we could never imagine, and we can only wonder why they do what they do. I think the codex is a somewhat unsolved mystery. We do know that the gods created it, and must have some purpose with it, so that's about all we really can know. Maybe some day it's purpose will become clear, but until then, we will never truly know.
