Religious Man

Victor is not a religious man. He prides himself on being a man of science and logic; a rational man without the need for any frivolous dogma or faith. He has never uttered a silent prayer, set foot on any house of worship, nor read a page from any holy book.

Victor is not a religious man. He is a medical researcher, a biologist, an inventor. Even after the accident that robbed him of his family, he never sought comfort in any higher power. Instead, he buried himself in his work. He worked tirelessly, without ever stopping for rest. In the end, their replicas were perfect. His wife; his two children - living, breathing and flawless again.

Victor is not a religious man; he does not know that he should be.

He thought he could play God, but no soul can ever escape Hell.

Only we can.
