People who still say "Synthesis is what we fought against in ME1, Derp!" don't get the right to have opinions.

It seriously take 5 seconds of actual thinking to realize that it completely (retracted). Saren wanted organic races to serve the Reapers to save the galaxy, and to do so he himself was implanted (in a way that was totally different from Synthesis, I add) with Reaper technology. He never, never, mentioned anything about combining organic and synthetic life in order to bring peace through understanding.

@Zxjkl, what does that have to do with anything? Lily was not even mentioned in that comment (although I do agree that no facepalm is big enough for this comment).
