Do you remember getting into arguments when you were a kid? Maybe you argued about which Pokemon was betters (the answer is Zapdos), or which member of a boy band was the cutest, or maybe which Star Trek series was the best (okay, that last one was just me).
After you had been arguing for a while, it would turn ugly and you would start calling each other names. Finally someone would proclaim, “Well, you're just stupid.” (People in the background would be like “Oohhh, no, he didn’t!”)
The only response to “Well, you're just stupid” was to call the other person stupid as well. Bonus points if it could be done in a clever manner: “I'm rubber you’re glue....”
The point is, calling someone stupid is no joke. It is a serious matter. It hurts to be called stupid, and if the Bible calls us stupid we should probably change our ways.
Verse 1 says, “Whoever loves discipline loves knowledge, but he who hates reproof is stupid.”
If you respond to correction well, you love knowledge. But, if you hate it when someone corrects you when you do something wrong, then you are stupid, according to the Bible.
