How is that against diversity ?


You cannot change DNA in said capacity without causing changes to the organism.

Spiderman is an impossibility. You cannot take that amount of mutation and remain the same.

It simply works that way.

This is science.

But they did make changes to the organnism. That''s the point of syntheis.

Racism is based on difference of appearance, not dna level.



You need to learn what racism means.


Enlighten me then, because throughout history racism is based on people being different, and that difference is their appearance.

Also, synthesis doesn't give everyone the same dna, it adds to their dna.

Take a look of what is going on in africanow.Mass genocide ofpeople because they belong to a different tribe and they all look the same?
The same thing can be said about Japan and Korea.

That's not racism in africa, thats people of the same race fighting each others.... Japan fighting with Korea? That's two countries fighting each other. It's a difference of nationalities not race.

If the DNA was all the same, we would all look the same.
Since the different species still look different from each other, we can conclude Synthesis did not modify the already existing DNA, it just added synthetic characteristics to it.

No, not really. Physical simularity has nothing to do with unifomity of dna.The consept of a race show that. They only time when looks are the same is via cloning or close simularity of dna.

1. You missing the fact that both organics and syntheticare techo organic in fused.

So? Shepard has implants to keep himself alive. If we used the same implants on someone else, would they suddenly be the same person?
All life on Earth spawned from a singular ancestor thus why it is all based on DNA but there is great diversity.


2. It doesn't solve the problem of more sysnthetic being made that can up rise.

Even if they do, organics will have been upgraded to the point where there is no risk of a purely synthetic race ever destroying us all.

3. You giving theStar child access to the cruscible to us it as he sees fit after you make your choice.

No, we are not. The Citadel is simply the Catalyst. It brings about the reaction but it can't control it.
And again, the Citadel is destroyed. The Crucible is useless without it.

Nope, Legion is dead so I will happily continue to kill synthetics in the end if it means I have a chance to save everyone else.

 Considering its pretty non-sensical how Shepard could survive Destroy... I hope all endings have some sort of reconcilation.

Destroy - You survive.
Control - You survive as the new Catalyst, and speak to your friends as a being a light.
Synthesis - You survive as a synthetic hybrid, same as everyone else.


If bioware want this to be some big moral choice, they need to remove shepards survival from the equation. Too many people would pick destroy for that.

All that said I think destroy is the only option (to my mind), and that the moral choice is null since the other two are terrible.

I'm not disputing the fact of genocide, I'm telling you 1 tribe killing another is not racism.

1. But everyone need those implats. Everyone else can live a happy life with out them.
2. Not true at all. It would increase the danger. If they face a synthetic race they would have to fight, it would get to apoint were it waslike the USSR vs USA. A mass of super weapon pointed at each other...That opens up a  pyrric victory happening.
3.I'm sorry. But your missing the fact that is has to be fired...Who does this if you died? The starchild. You just gave him control.

And the fact that aliens still look very distinct from humans proves the concept of different races still apply.
We all have synthetic upgrades now but we are just upgraded versions of our species.

You can't bring someone back to life that has fallen from space and has been dead for as long as Shepard was for that matter.

Every human has the basic of human dna, but we don't look the same...Jus simular...It's the same concept.

The "star child" can't control the crucible, otherwise why didn't it as soon as it was joined to the Citadel?

We are told that Shepard is restored via Stem Cells and cell regeneration.

Stem Cells have basis in reality now.

I would sooner believe that you can repair dead tissue than rewrite the way it is.
