I probably have more downvotes than anyone, due to my opinion on one topic alone, and you don't see me whining about it.

Sean Johnson had a tempertantrum and needs a thicker skin.

Hah, I have 2264 and counting (more than double your total) ... probably the downvote champ here on CI.  Of course I have over 7000 upvotes too.  My ratio used to be 6:1 positive, until I got a cadre of Drew followers giving me an automatic 3 downvotes on every post (even had I posted a recipe for a meatless dish).  I think that I doubled my downvote total in the last 60 days as a result.   It all depends on what topic you decide to post on and what side you take on the issue.

Matthew, it would be fun if you could post a list of upvote and downvote leaders here on CI.  LOL ... I just gave you an inadvertent downvote, just testing whether it could be done.  I seem to recall that you blocked downvotes against you at one point.  Evidently that's not the case.  I wonder if more people don't downvote any of your posts because they're afraid that you'll be able to see who did it.  In any case, what I can't stand is the anonymous downvotes.  I think that someone should be able to mouse over the downvotes on each post and see who did it.

Also, it seems that Sean Johnson has an inordinate need to be "right."

As if there is some "right" opinion to hold on the Church crisis.

I don't necessarily think there is a "right."

In the Resistance parishes I know, attendance is down.

In the SSPX parishes I know, attendance is down. Last I heard, Liberty Station in San Diego is being closed, back to the hotel for them.

In the sede parishes I know, attendance is down.

Where did everyone go? Who knows?

I think that the kids are leaving ... to be honest.  Many Traditional Catholics are the older-generation holdovers, and I see their kids and grandkids often leaving Tradition back to the Novus Ordo or just giving up on the Catholic Church altogether.

I absolutely agree that there's no "right" position on the crisis.  I do, however, think that there are many WRONG ones.  ... if that makes sense.

Kudos to you, though, Smedley, since you have about 20% more downvotes than posts.  :laugh1:
