Religious POV

I was thinking that for the whole story of the creature punishing/tormenting Victor by murdering his loved ones, this could be a religious reference. Victor created a man in a unnatural way and brought him to life by unnatural means. One could say that he was defying God by cheating death. I would say that the creature, or rather the purpose he has, is to punish Victor for trying to rival the power of God by creating his own man, one that he intended to be perfect and better than any other man. And if not God, then Satan could be the one punishing him for bringing life back to a dead man (stealing a soul back from hell or something to that effect).
