“...Ted Cruz, might have reason to have second thoughts if there is enough of this.”
Ted doesn’t have second thoughts about anything. He only has first thoughts, and they’re all about him.
We ultimately don’t know till it has played out. This refers to a spiritual realm of thought and nobody but the good Lord can read Ted’s head. Upbringing can have a lot to do with learned follies and this is not insuperable.
But the “Dominionism” philosophy, as a whole, is quite a sop to selfishness. To paraphrase the bible, I sure haven’t learned Christ that way. I never found the bible telling me that I would get the world on a silver platter. I did find it telling me that I would be supplied everything needed for what Jesus Christ wanted me to do. I am one of the biggest egotists by upbringing that I know. (As you might imagine, meeting with siblings is painful for me.) But earthly upbringing is not the end of the story, not for me or anybody else.
