religious connection with Frankenstein

In Frankenstein, the creature tells us his side of the story. He was able to learn a lot about history by reading many books such as Sorrows of Werter and Plutarch's Lives. What really catches the creatures attention is a book of poems called Paradise Lost. The poem concerns with the Christain story such as Adam and Eve and the Garden of Eden. In Frankenstein the creature compares himself to Adam saying "I was created apparently united by no link to any other being in existence; but his state was far different from mine in every other respect" This quote gave a religious and depressing feeling by comparing himself to Adam and Victor to God, although unlike God which made Adam "happy and prosperous" Victor made the creature wretched and even abandoned him.
