You admit that Rather may be mentally crippled.
If she is mentally crippled, then why should she
be accepted as an expert?

    Your insults damn you if false.  They also damn you if they're
    true.  Do you understand what an absolute failure of a position
    that is?  You're either savaging the respectable or you're
    savaging the crippled.  Your attacks are unjustified or cruel.
    There is no positive outcome for you.  You will never be the
    hero.  Nobody will ever recognize the awesomeness of your
    speaking truth to power.  So please: every time your little bile
    bag fills up, instead of vomiting its contents all over yourself
    in view of this forum, try diluting it with bleach.
