Why can't he admit that he did something selfish? Don't we all do selfish things? Why not admit he abandoned his post? Again, haven't we all? We mess up, make mistakes, and look out for #1: Isn't that the definition of humanity? Just be humble, and admit he wasn't thinking clearly. And then he could do everything in his power to help people, who were suffering in the storm. Isn't he a Christian? Shouldn't the duty to help others kick in at some point? No one is a perfect Christian all the time. Peter denied Jesus three times. But, at some point, as Jesus told Peter, "when you come to yourself," then you do the right thing. Did Cruz do the right thing, after denying his position as a leader of a suffering people?
If a person can't admit they were wrong, when they get caught, and were obviously wrong, then how many other times were they not caught? So Cruz not only abandoned his post, he abandoned his Christian duty, and blamed it on his daughters, thus abandoning his respectful role of being a father.
