I'm curious what someone finds wrong with my post.  The reason for the down thumb is________________________________________________

Please respond in a short answer style response.

Please don't be offended, but worrying about ONE downvote is really having some seriously thin skin.  Getting one or two downvotes is no big deal at all. It doesn't even make THAT INDIVIDUAL POST look bad, much less your overall CathInfo reputation. Your post has 5 upvotes, 1 downvote -- the People have spoken that it's a good post.

If a political candidate got 95% of the popular vote, would he cry about how 5% of people voted against him? Of course not! That's how you have to look at the upvote/downvote system on CathInfo.

You can't worry about having a "perfect score" on CathInfo -- it's impossible, because encountering a jerk or two on a thread or two will give you a handful of downvotes. What's more important is the percentage. Do you have more downvotes than upvotes? That sort of thing.

It's like "margin of error". The upvote/downvote system on CathInfo is PERFECT for what it was designed for -- but the catch is that it was only designed for big-picture reporting, if you follow what I mean. There is no way to prevent a person from having a single unjust downvote on a forum where there are human beings with Free Will :)

If Our Blessed Lord were on CathInfo, I assure you He would probably have some downvotes -- sad to say! He had enemies on earth who literally wanted to kill Him, when He went about doing good, curing diseases, and working miracles! No one is without enemies. Just offer it up -- It makes us closer to Christ.

(I completely agree with you on the post in question, and I am against Croixalist in this thread, BTW.)
