The true story is not the one that wants to maintain its distinctives at all costs in all circumstances, but rather the one that wants to bear fruit. The mother who would relinquish her claim to motherhood to save the child is the true mother.— Sᴜɴʀɪsᴇ Oᴀᴛʜ 十 Tʜᴇ Sʏʟʟᴀʙᴜꜱ (ORI) - CC0 (@sunriseoath) October 28, 2026

In Canada, one of the elements that makes spanking illegal would be if it were done out of anger or out of retaliation rather than out of sober and calm corrective intent.Yet, most people would look down *more* on spanking where a parent issues a sentence then carries it out.— Sᴜɴʀɪsᴇ Oᴀᴛʜ 十 Tʜᴇ Sʏʟʟᴀʙᴜꜱ (ORI) - CC0 (@sunriseoath) October 30, 2026

I know someone who might not be considered a loser by most, but who by my books is well on that trajectory due to dragging their feet about kids because he thought she was not ready, divorcing her after almost a decade, then cohabitating with a fling.— Sᴜɴʀɪsᴇ Oᴀᴛʜ 十 Tʜᴇ Sʏʟʟᴀʙᴜꜱ (ORI) - CC0 (@sunriseoath) October 21, 2026

As a twenty-year-old heathen, I was more than happy to speak like a supervillain, but had a very strong sense of what is effectively cosmic justice.

It is because we are not perfect that we are best off giving the benefit of the doubt and engaging in the usual cultural Christian niceties which give each other some wiggle room. But we should never forget that this is about letting God act, not about moralizing to God.— Sᴜɴʀɪsᴇ Oᴀᴛʜ 十 Tʜᴇ Sʏʟʟᴀʙᴜꜱ (ORI) - CC0 (@sunriseoath) October 13, 2026

China's somewhat mercurial language makes it hard to actually sustain a focused long-term project. A disciplined founder eventually dies. A civilization needs institutions that transmit judgment rather than enforce compliance.— Sᴜɴʀɪsᴇ Oᴀᴛʜ 十 Tʜᴇ Sʏʟʟᴀʙᴜꜱ (ORI) - CC0 (@sunriseoath) October 12, 2026
