The moral lesson of Frankenstein, simply stated, is that Victor should not have tried to "play" God. It was morally wrong to upset the natural order of the world, and to add to it, his rejection and denial of the monster raises the question of nature vs. nuture, and that it was immoral to walk away from his creation.
