(9/100) Frankenstein: Science and Ethics
Frankenstein is a famous story written by Mary Shelley. It is about a scientist named Victor Frankenstein. He creates a creature from dead body parts. Victor is excited about his work, but he does not think about the consequences. The creature becomes lonely and sad. He wants to be accepted, but people fear him because he looks different. This story teaches us important lessons about science and ethics. Today, new technologies like genetic engineering and artificial intelligence raise similar questions. Scientists have great power, but they must think carefully about their actions. What happens if they create something without considering the effects on society or on individuals? Just like Victor, they must remember that science should help people, not harm them. The story of Frankenstein reminds us that we need to be responsible with our discoveries and consider how they affect the world around us.
