Make a comment about their capabilities in some fashion--if I went into more detail I'd probably get a hide from the No Sex Threads patrol, but you know what I mean.

"That's what everyone with a small ... mind... says!" That kind of thing!

If you realize they're coming from a place of utter and abject ignorance, you can slap them back without too much trouble. Don't get overly invested in hate. Either laugh at it, mock it robustly, or ignore it. Behind every hate-filled post is a dweeb who can't get a date, I'm guessing.
