[Edit]

Answer


"the theme is that if you have a defect you should be killed or put away from the rest of the normal people. "

not that's just plain dumb.
this is not indeed the theme of the book, but it is a point that the book is trying to explain is bad.
the theme of the book is tolerance.
tolerance for other people's religions, cultures, and bodies.
