They are options.
Two of the options allow the Reapers to live and one ends the Reaper threat for good.
Don't fall for the indoctrination attempt...

With that said, however, I always pick destroy whether my Shepard is paragon or renegade simply because it was always my Shepard's goal. Anything else wouldn't be a victory. Since ME1 my Shep has been trying to destroy the Reapers, and now that he has that choice, he's not gonna pick anything else.

Destroy = Renegade
Control = Very Renegade
Synthesis = Troll Shep

I don't see it as being inconsistent however, as Destroy is the paragon choice. Control is renegade, even if there are now different versions of it post-EC depending on Shepard's overall morality.
Besides Anderson (a paragon) being the avatar of Destroy, on a Low EMS playthrough Destroy will be the only option available to a character that destroyed the Collector Base. (a paragon decision)
In contrast the Illusive Man (the ultimate renegade) is the avatar for Control, while on a Low EMS playthrough it is the only option available to a character that kept the Collector Base. (a renegade decision)
Synthesis is probably intended to be the middle of road between the paragon and renegade extremes of Destroy and Control.
Refuse is just moronic.

"A good leader is someone who values the life of his men over the success of the mission, but understands that sometimes the cost of failing a mission is higher than the cost of losing those men." - Anderson

Destroy is pure Renegade choice. Much worse than things TIM and Cerberus did.

Paragon would never kill if he knows how to avoid it and still prevail... Paragon would never kill someone in such situation EVEN if a person(s) (no matter hostile of friendly) really deserves to die.
Personally i think Synthesis is paragon. Just think to Destroy Heretics (Renegade) and Rewrite the Heretics (Paragon). Anyway i chose Synthesis with my paragon Male Shepard. I left Destroy to my Paragade Femshep.

Sorry, but no.
Besides Anderson (a paragon) being the avatar for Destroy and Destroy being the only choice available to a Low EMS Shep who destroyed the Collector Base (a paragon decision), it is also the only ending choice that truly accomplishes the mission. Why should killing the Reapers be avoided? That would be foolhardy.
Control and Synthesis are stalemate endings where an armistice is hammered out with the Reapers. The Reapers remain undefeated in the field of battle and maintain an entirely intact fleet, with which they could still annihilate the galaxy if they chose.Control and Synthesis require that the galaxy trusts that the Reapers won't someday destroy them.
Destroy in contrast annihilates the Reaper fleet, and as such is the only ending that can truly guarantee that galactic civilization will be safe from the Reapers for all time.
Control is choosing to become an absolute dictator over the galaxy. Certainly not a paragon decision.

Now I don't consider any option to be paragon or renegade.
What I want to know...is...how does Shepard making a "god-like" decision to change the DNA of every being (organic and synthetic) in the universe a "paragon" choice in your opinion?

Who told you that Anderson is pure Paragon or "Avatar" of Destroy? He is nothing like that. Who told you that destruction of Collector base is Paragon? Doing as TIM asks you doesn't automatically make the deed Renegade.
Renegade = destroying things and killing people even if there is a valid alternative.
Paragon = avoiding unneeded deaths and destruction.
Destroy = Renegade.
Refusal = Renegade.
Synthesis = Paragon.
Control is very complicated and has both Paragon and Renegade variants.
This is what the endings are.

Yup because saving geths and EDI is like a paragon option. By sacrifice Edi and geths for the win you act like a ruthless Shepard without forget that if you don't have enough war assets for the best Destroy Ending is even worse.CDR David Shepard wrote...

Saving EDI at the cost of the individuality of each and every race and being is extremely selfish to me.

Synthesis does not remove indivduality. There is no evidence for this, at all.
