Description : Why does Starbuck accuse Captain Ahab of blasphemy?

Last Answer : answer:My guess? Because Moby Dick is a beast that acts only on instinct. Ahab treats it as if it were a man who had wronged him. Man was made in the image of God; Ahab's acrimonious attitude is ... whales in His image, and saying that He did is insulting. I dunno, I never actually read Moby Dick.
