Isn't Shepard's sense of self-importance large enough already?

The two divine paths are Paragon: Extreme Purity and Renegade: Extreme Sin. The path to Indoctrination is being neutral.

I have said this before and will say it again:  I vote for Shepard to become the Emprah, or Empress..  rah of Mankind.

Then we can purge some xenos.

I think it would be very possible in the Mass Effect universe for Shepard to become a Messiah in the Galaxy especially if he saves/unites many species.  Maybe in future Mass Effect games there will be Shepard "cults" which become a bit of a problem for Governments.

"And so I liken the worship of the Lord thy Shepard unto the feeding of thine fish: for if ye shall take time to feed thine fish between missions, thine fish shall be pleased, and ye shall be rewarded. But verily I say unto thee, if thou dost not feed thine fish, and thine fish should perish, then ye shall fall out of favor with the Lord thy Shepard, and ye shall surely be cast out into Dark Space for all of eternity."

"Thou shall also keep Commander Shepard's favored animals, the Hamster and the Varren, in their household. But should thou suffer either the Pyjack or the Shifty Cow, thou shall suffer indoctrination by the Reapers."

"But thou shall never aspire to be better than the Divine Commander Shepard, that path shall lead thou to Dark Space, like the most tragic Saren Arterius."

"And so the heathen Saren Arterius did attempt to destroy the Lord thy Shepard, and spoke curses unto Him: for he had been indoctrinated by the Reaper Sovereign, who did assume direct control over his form, and thus became an abomination unto the Lord thy Shepard. And the Lord thy Shepard's vengeance was swift as He smote the heathen Saren Arterius with His righteous might, and His armies did smite the Reaper Sovereign, destroying it: and so the first great victory of the Lord thy Shepard did come to pass."

EDIT: Sorry, I got some of my Dragon Age in my Mass Effect. I fixed it - I hope the Lord thy Shepard doesn't punish me too harshly.
