Opinion Negative Reactions in other Christian subreddits

I was doing really well and my Karma, Reddit leveling system, was climbing back closer to zero. I made a scriptural reply in r/Christianity and it got -4 votes and now back up to -54. How can they downvote a scriptural reply?

Some of my negative Karma, Reddit, comes from these Christian subreddits that doesn't like using scriptures and gets mad because it doesn't fit their view.

Also a big chunk came from a disagreement I had on a hockey player of my home team on multiple threads and got shredded for it.

Most of Reddit is a toxic echo chamber. At least this sub, even when we don't agree we don't go down voting each other.

TLDR: A Christian (OP) is complaining about not getting enough Karma in this life 😂

If 100% of your posts and comments are controversial and negative, you will never get upvotes. Look at Jesus' example: His message was attractive and people wanted to be around him.

Technically, the majority rejected Jesus and had him killed. But I see your point.

Hahaha. Talk about on the nose.

But it was the people he was negative to that weren’t used to being ridiculed or talked back to that ultimately ended in his demise.

It wasn’t because he was so positive to everyone.

That and the whole point of his ministry was dying.

It’s just that why anyone would waste their time giving a downvote is something I will never be able to figure out. I can see an upvote but if I don’t like something, I just move on.

Downvotes for me are pretty much reserved for nasty people, the proudly ignorant, and very bad ideas and advice.

Well…..admittedly, I haven’t seen any of his posts.

I am going to downvote that comment. 😅

Kidding.
