He was a tall creature and weighed almost 5 tons. Godzilla was a friendly creature who never fought until it was absolutely necessary. His weapon was a mattock that he used for farming. He lived on the farm which he helped alongside with other gods such as Zeus, Hades, Persephone, and Demeter.

    When Victor Frankenstein created his monster, it was a great example of how someone can do something with the best intentions in mind, but get an outcome far different than what they had expected. If one thing is the same all about technology, whether it be for good or evil, it is that most of the time, their creators started out with the best intentions. Probably the best example of this is the Manhattan Project: the creation of the atomic bomb. In 1939, Albert Einstein wrote to President Franklin Roosevelt and urged him to approve a program that would create the first nuclear weapon.…

    Similarly, this scene is a direct metaphor for Castle Bravo, which was a hydrogen bomb test enacted by the United States which was one thousand times stronger than the bomb dropped on Hiroshima.

Perhaps, I am injudicious, but in my opinion, such extreme measures during a lengthy, ongoing war was not most rational…
