One Pair of Eyes — Season 1, Episode 5: James Cameron: The Road to Kingdom Come

Episode synopsis

"Man is the only animal who knows he is going to die. It therefore became imperative to live without despair. Thus was created God." James Cameron, who describes himself as a permanent minority, journeys from St. Peter's, Rome, down the crowded road of the great faiths to Israel, Egypt, and India, and casts a sceptical glance at mankind's interpretation of God's demands.
