The document argues that a creator always has an ethical responsibility for that which they create due to the unintended consequences their neglect may have on their own life, others' lives, and the intrinsic value of the life they have created.

Victor Frankenstein allows the horror and disgust (31) that filled his heart upon the creation of his monster to control his actions.
