There is very little that should bring you to place a comma after "and" in a normal sentence. Given the words used, I'd just go with this:
Quote:
You don't seem to know the difference between "then" and "than," and therefore what
little credibility you had before has now been completely obliterated.
Possibly break it up, restoring the comma's place:
Quote:
You seem not to know the difference between "then" and "than." Therefore, what
little credibility you had had has been obliterated.
"Obliteration" is an absolute state. Any modifier should only weaken it.
The obliteration of credibility, however, should be contingent on a serious failing in the particular field of supposed knowledge, not a typographical error or simple misused word.
No, mister TV, that Mexican dog is not "possibly" descended from a fox it bears a passing resemblance to, and the universe is neither one dimensional nor sentient.
Now, World Wide Words has new content due today. Also, when merry Mary marries, all three words need to sound different, or your accent is broken.
