Control: Personally, I don't like control all that much, mainly because Shepard essentially becomes God. I am a firm Christian believer of God, and I feel that He sets the first and last word in the universe and should be the only one with almighty levels of power. Having Shepard turn into an omnipresent immortal who protects the galaxy doesn't sit well with me.

Synthesis: This ending conveys the sense that all is well in the galaxy, and life has reached its apex of evolution. Though this does feel like a happy ending, it contradicts a lot of what Mass Effect has been about. Milkman, as you said before, ME's biggest theme is unity through diversity. And squishing synthetic and organic DNA together doesn't allow much room for diversity.

Destroy: The best ending, in my opinion. Do what you set out to do from square one, no questions asked. Give ol' Harbinger and his tentacled buddies a Crucible-charged kick in the balls.
