Frankenstein is a Jerk

"'Devil,' I exclaimed, 'do you dare approach me? and do not you fear the fierce vengeance of my arm wreaked on your miserable head?'" pg 68

I know I already touched on this a bit in an earlier blog, but Frankenstein has no reason to really be afraid of this monster. My feelings are conflicted because of the information Shelley has provided, but Frankenstein knows this information only from hindsight, and when he creates the monster and meets it again, he has no reasons to fear it. Let's assume he does not have knowledge of the creature that he has failed to share so far. If that is the case, he should have nothing to fear, but still does. Considering he is a scientist, he should be incredibly curious as to how the creature managed to develop language, walk, think, and separate its senses in just a couple years. It takes people much, much longer to speak and think the way the creature can. Instead of following through with his study and being a respectable scientist and human being, Frankenstein threaten to kill his own creation. He has completely refused to give the creature a fair chance and give it the respect it deserves.
