NEW THEORY: What the enemy races really represent!

Ok, so someone else had a thread about Destiny's story and I posted an idea that I think should be considered more. I think there is more symbolism to the enemy races in the game than we realize. They are not simply enemies we shoot and kill or are all simply "evil". [u]My theory:[/u] [b]The enemy races all represent different, primal, fears of humanity[/b] [b]The Fallen[/b]: the fear of no purpose [b]The Hive[/b]: the fear of death [b]The Cabal[/b]: the fear of conquest [b]The Vex[/b]: the fear of time (running out of it, not having enough,) In these ways, the enemy races are all very distinct and separate. In fact, aside from physical features, these are the only things that truly make them different. I won't say whether Destiny is some sort of Vex run simulation or a repeating time loop. And this just may be pure symbolism with nothing to really do with the outcome of the story itself. But I wanted to share this with you all and have your thoughts as well.
