Frankenstein's Creation



      Frankenstein's unethical creation creates controversy, as many debate on whether it should be destroyed or not. Based on the evidence, Frankenstein's creation should be allowed to live because he expresses humanity, and many of his actions are unintentional. For example, he unintentionally killed his human friend Marie, although he was kind to her and others when they did appear to be a threat. On the other hand, those he killed were harming him or posing a threat to his safety. These emotions of fear and kindness portray that Frankenstein's creation is humane and does not deserve death.

      One reason Frankenstein's "monster" should not be killed is because he exhibits human emotion. For instance, he was kind to his human friend Marie, and he shows concern when his creator loses consciensceness. It can also be argued that he threw Frankenstein off of the windmill to the mob of angry people to save his creator. In addition, the people he killed were harming him in some way. One of these deaths occured when Frankenstein's creation was being experimented on, and thus he acted in self defense. Although these deaths were unfortunate, Frankenstein's creation did not understand his actions, as he just entered the world.
