This topic is so entertaining:lol:. People's reactions here are priceless. Nonetheless, people here are calling me a paragon. I'm not saying that you are wrong but I think you need to look at the morality of my main Shepard. He started out with +190 Paragon +52 Renegade.

Doesn't matter what your Shepard's game score is. You're a true Paragon at heart. Anyone who will kill and torture for morality reasons is a Paragon. Anyone who will kill and torture because there's no other way to reach his goal is a Renegade. Renegades do evil because it's necessary. Paragons do evil because it pleases them.
So let me get this straight are you saying that there is idealism in some of the renegade actions? (I'm not saying your right or wrong)
What's a man without a goal? Preservation and advancement of humanity is a noble goal. Destroying the ultimate threat to all life in the galaxy - the Reapers - is a noble goal. The absolute majority of the life forms in the galaxy don't have a goal in their lives at all. Much less a goal of that magnitude. They're simply going through the motions, make no difference whatsoever in the lives, leave no lasting impression on the galaxy, and die just as unnoticed as they were born.
Torturing and killing someone just because their actions disagree with your personal moral code is not what I would call a noble goal. It's certainly weak and pointless in comparision to saving the galaxy. Say, you tortured and killed Cerberus and TIM. Did the galaxy become a better place? Nope, it became empty, because while you were thus distracted, the Reapers wiped out all life.
You may call Shepard who's focused on saving the galaxy idealistic. Perhaps so: but I'd wager trillions of life forms would be grateful for that kind of idealism.
