Why does Starbuck argue that it is madness for Ahab to be angry with Moby-D*ck for the loss of his leg?


because Moby-D*ck is a senseless creature that acts out of instinct

because Starbuck believes Ahab must learn to forgive

because Ahab lost his leg in an accident that was not Moby-D*ck’s fault

because accidents occur on whaling vessels on a regular basis
