Machines answer instantly. Humans hesitate. Out of that gap came the Sacred Pause — the core of Ternary Moral Logic (TML). It’s a three-state system: +1 Proceed when the path is clear 0 Sacred Pause when ethics demand reflection and logging −1 Refuse when harm must be stopped TML keeps AI fast, but adds conscience in parallel. Every system carries the Goukassian Promise: 🏮 Lantern, ✍️ Signature, 📜 License. Break the promise, lose the lantern — and the right to call the system ethical.
