Frankenstein Journal Entry

The film raises interesting questions about meddling with things that we don't yet fully comprehend. Dr. Frankenstein played with life and mentioned he was being like god, but ended up creating a monster. He created something that was alright to begin with, but without understanding how the experiment could go wrong, how he could make people suffer through his actions, he looked at his experiments with a heavy bias. He had no concern for anyone else but his research. He failed to recognize when he had to start over, or do something correctly, for example, upon being told that the brain he was using was faulty, he simply brushed it off. The brain might've contributed to the monster's violent nature.

This type of mistake is one that other scientists try not to make. With the hadron collider, scientists are taking every measure possible to make sure it isn't dangerous and creates a black hole. For any small problem that may occur, there's a delay in the project. It's been run once and the scientists would like to run more tests with it, but they have to be completely sure it can't go wrong. If they were blind like Dr. Frankenstein, they possibly could've ended the world already with the hadron collider.

We have to be careful when conducting new research and passing the limit. We have to fully understand the next step and know how it can go wrong and prepare for it. Instead of rushing into things and ignoring the consequences.
