Frankenstein "At All Cost" Blog Stephen Magretti

Frankenstein is a prime example of the pursuit of life at all costs. Dr. Frankenstein, searching for the meaning of life himself, creates a monster. He achieves this by going against all moral code of the time. If someone had discovered the secret of this monster, he would be ashamed and banned from society. Also, the monster he created turned into a cold-blooded killer. Dr. Frankenstein, realizing his grave mistake, did not create a female companion for the original monster and the angry beats on a killing spree.Dr. Frankenstein ignored all these costs in order to achieve the creation of life itself.
An example of this "at all cost" attitude is seen in professional baseball. Mark McGuire, a famous first baseman for the St. Louis Cardinals, admitted to having used steroids during his professional career. his illustrious career made him one of the most feared hitters to ever step to the plate. With the revealing of this secret, his name has forever been scarred and his whole career cast into a lifelong shadow.
