Since this theme is a premium theme, and since you also receive support when purchasing it, I would suggest that you contact the theme author and ask them to update the theme to use the comment_form function.
They can follow the instructions in this post to update the theme:

I would like to launch this theme on my site in a few days http://themefurnace.com/blog/portfolio/sympalpress/
but i can’t seem to get the JetPack comments (which i need because i prefer its layout + its fb/twitter/wp integration) to over ride it. i have no idea how to fix it! i also did uncheck “user must be registered to log in” and replacing the
<form>code with<?php comment_form(); ?>didn’t fully fix it either.i am willing to e-mail a jetpack author with the comments.php code if necessary? this is just urgent b/c of lack of time!
thank you.
