7:48 - 7:51 is a direct jab at the omnipotent God of the universe who created us all, then sent a flood to destroy most of us as most of us had rebelled and chosen the ways of death.

Let's not repeat the antediluvians' sin and miss out on eternal life.

I will. I will watch it over and over again. I will watch it so often that I will memorize every word uttered by Robert Ballard. Do you know what will happen? I will still find that Robert Ballard says nothing regarding a god. More than that, earlysda, I will continue to be inspired by Robert Ballard and his deep sea adventures.

You may wish to view the video again to ascertain for yourself that yes, Robert Ballard, took a personal dig at the God of the Bible.

No god covered the world with water. There's just as much evidence that it was the Easter Bunny who did. In which case his metaphor was correct.

EIther you are a bad troll or are fishing for conspiracy where there is none. Open your mind, he is advocating for exploration of the oceans, not against a deity.

Perhaps you wish to view it again to refresh your memory?

Really? I don't remember him saying anything about god, much less "railing" on him.
