Refusal is Abhorrent. Destroy is the True Rejection of the Catalyst

In that light, choosing Destroy:
- kills all the peaceful synthetics, thereby legitimising Catalysts delusions about the inevitable conflict with organics, despite our own actions showing us otherwise
- also legitimises Catalysts sick methods and amorality; we are basically agreeing with him that deliberate genocide of entire species is justified to preserve organic life
I agree that Destroy is the best choice (if for no other reasons than authorial fiat), but don't delude yourselves that it is either moral or a rejection of the Catalyst.

Only reject is truly rejecting the catalyst. And the Crucible. Though I don't like the choice myself, we can't ignore the truth.

Giving the Citadel the extra power required for destroying the Reapers. Doesn't explain why the Starchild lets you.
If the Crucible is the means of Reaper destruction rather than just the "battery", then the Starchild is lying.
There’s a bit in its programming where it is required to seek alternatives when an organic life form succeeds in penetrating the inner sanctum of the Citadel.
The Crucible is built as a weapon…one that can attach into the Citadel, because they know it can be used to disperse the effect throughout the relay network. So, yeah, the Crucible is full of purely destructive energy, unless modulated.
So the Starchild is being dishonest?
It’s being imprecise.
Calling a weapon that can destroy the Reapers "little more than a power source" is being dishonest.

Either way, we know the condition that Shepard was in when he was recovered, he can life without those implants, not even in "vegetarian" state, the catalyst is a liar and unless you metagame you shouldn't have a reason to believe anything he says.arial wrote...

you just sacrificed most of your resources to get the crucible docked and you can see your ships getting blown up. the crucible changed the catalyst and it is obvious that it doesn't want you to to pick destroy
not saying which is better but don't say you at least don't commit genocide on the geth., because in destroy the geth are a casualty of war and a sacrifice for the many, whereas in refuse they just death is pointless
but that is me

So basically stoop to the level of the Reapers to beat them, thus becoming just as inherently evil.

Well, you do have to consider the possibility that the Catalyst is correct about a significant threat posed by singularity.
(It obviously cannot be an absolute truth, since the future is unknown.)

pretty sure you know where i am coming from then? i am not saying which one is better , just that you do commit genocide with refusal for the same reasons with destroy. you do not know 100% if it will destroy the geth. you are taking a chance with it
same as refuse, there is no gurantee you will win or lose. pretty high chance of losing though. which by your actions in refusal, or inactions, you will get billions killed. even if you end up winning it will still cost the lives of perhaps millions. which is genocide.

Inherent. You keep using that word, but etc.
It’s a hard decision, but not inherently evil. Certainly less so than directly and knowingly causing the deaths of all sapient life through inaction.

no i called the geth a casualty of war. they are a sacrifice for the many, in destroy the destroying the geth is genocide. but it is done to save the many. in refusal you don't achieve anything with their deaths, other then to give the next cycle the cahne to use the crucible or a conventional victory

To commit genocide is to make you inherently evil. To refuse to and have your principles remain intact, not so much.
