essay summary of what does it mean to be human?

What does it mean to be human? It means being created in the image of God, and to have a soul. It means to be able think and infer, and to be able to love with soul-like qualities. We see these examples straight from text, and evidence, for example Genesis 1:26 says "And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth." An example of the thinking and inferring, is in Frankenstein by Mary Shelley. When Victor created the monster, he was able to think mathematically and with science to do it, and he could infer once the monster started killing his family that his decision to create it was bad. 

Anthropomorphism

Anthropomorphism; giving human attributions to an animal. We see this is in call of the wild. Buck is put into a human character, and given human attributes by the point of view Jack London uses. Another example of anthropomorphism is the apes in the wild, when they take the spears (sharp sticks they have made) and hunt the bush babies, like a human.

Cost of life or zeal for survival?

Victor Frankenstein and Robert Walton

  Victor and Robert are very differential, but happen try to achieve an impossible goal.
     Victor and Robert both tried to get something they could not achieve. Robert against nature and Victor against the monster he created. 
     Victor would never give up, he was too messed up in the mind. Victor told his story to Robert, then after Victor died Robert turned around and headed back. He knew that he was going to die to in the harsh goal chasing this crazy dream, and so he went back home to save himself, and his crew members.

Initial thoughts

          Frankenstien in my honest opinion would not be a recommended book, unless you are into a drawn out, long worded book. The book frankenstien would be good for some people, but not for me. The book is just to non lively, and way to wordy.

         My first on the book is that it is non lively. There are pieces and bits that make you slightly interested, but most of the book is not something that will leave you awe struck. This book is very hard to get into in the front, and to me if you cant get into a book, having to read it is torture.
       
         My second thought on the book is that it is way to worded. The usage of words in this book is just exceeding the limit of where  a book is enjoyable to read.

        All in all i think the book may be ok for some other people, but my thoughts are negative about it.

Creating life?

/If i was given the power to create life /i would choose not to. Life is a complex thing , something that shouldnt be put in man's hands to try and control.
I personally believe that man shouldnt be able to create man that should be put in the hands of God, because mans mind is so warped that a man created by a man would have to be a messed up creature.
Also i think that creating a human would be way to much responsiblity for me. I wouldnt want to have to deal with a monster everyday, and worrying about it hurting someone.
So therefore i think that i would choose not to create life, because of the warped and unknowlegable thing it would be.
