Pouring water into a concentrated battery acid dangerous?

Yes. Battery acid is sulfuric acid, and its dissociation in water is HIGHLY exothermic. Adding a small quantity of water to the concentrated acid releases so much heat that the water can reach its boiling point. Think frying bacon, except instead of hot grease spattering (which is bad enough) it's hot concentrated acid. Adding the acid to the water means that only a relatively small amount of acid is being added to a large quantity of water; this helps control the heat production (you should still do it carefully and slowly).
