Topic > Theme of God's role in Frankenstein - 1032

Life or DeathIf you create something should you be able to kill it? The idea of ​​playing the role of God as Victor did with Frankenstein's creatures is comparable to the same problem courts have with abortion laws. Various aspects of abortion can be quite overwhelming, as can who makes the final decision. Many governments have struggled to find what they believe to be a balance between the rights of pregnant women and the rights of fetuses. Before life begins, an individual has generally thought about whether or not he or she wants to create life. All life is created, whether it is Frankenstein's creatures or the development of a fetus. Once life is created, choosing to end that life can cause many problems. The struggle to choose between life and death could be avoided by an individual who evaluates the results of creating a life before beginning the process. There are many factors to evaluate before beginning the process of creating life. Most people know whether they are ready to create life. The choice is an important decision that will affect the rest of their life. The book Frankenstein begins by introducing Victor Frankenstein as an individual eager to create life. However, he does not choose to bring about this creation in the normal way (having a child), but instead chooses to create life from the parts of deceased individuals. Victor had many years to think about creating the monster, but he never thought about the consequences of his action. Furthermore, later in the novel Victor chooses to begin creating another creature without fully thinking about what will happen if this creature is created. In the real world people think about having children many times in their lives. People think about when to have children and when they will be able to provide the best life for their children. Although some individuals believe they are ready to create life, individuals may change their minds after the process has begun. Once the process of life begins, individuals have much to consider. When Victor begins to create the first creature, he is excited about the possibility of bringing his creation to life. He has no intention of destroying the creature at this time. However, once the creature is brought back to life and Victor realizes the monstrosity he has created, Victor wishes to abandon the creature..
