There are threads about theism, etc. in which theists have received positive net karma. It should be possible to learn which features of discourse tend to accrue upvotes on this site.

Even if someone's overall karma fluctuates a lot, karma can still be a good indicator of how LW feels about one of their comments if the comment's score is reasonably stable.
