Divine Intervention and Why I Believe In God
Some time ago I was reading forum=4 and doing my part to rate-down trolls. At some point I noticed that I had accidentally rated down a seemingly innocent post by Sassyboy. Feeling bad for catching an innocent bystander in the onslaught of rate-downs, I rated him up 2 times to offset my mistake. Since that moment, it has been obvious to me that the original rate-down was deserved and that the 2 rate-ups were actually the mistakes.
After much pondering and wishing that I had not "corrected" my mistake, I have came to a realization. It was divine intervention that caused me to get a head start on all the rate downs I would give Sassyboy over the course of his 10k+ posts.
As I write this, I realize that I actually do not make mistakes. Anytime I think I have made a mistake, I must remember that it is just God helping me make the right decision before I fully understand the situation. If I had been willing to accept divine intervention earlier, I wouldn't have to spend so much time trying to undo the 2 rate-ups that I erroneously gave Sassyboy.
