If being rude is a problem . . . no, if being impolite is a problem . . . no, even less than that -- if being uncivil is a problem, have I got a scripture for you.
On incivility. This one will cure you of any incivility. I trust, of course, that you will be willing to follow its advice.
"Whosoever is angry with his brother without cause shall be in danger of the judgment:and . . .whosoever shall say, Thou fool, shall be in danger of hell fire." (Matthew 5:22)
Now, you need to know, of course, just how this scripture will cure you. Perhaps it is just my judgment, but from bantering back and forth on Facebook, I have noticed that two of the most common forms of incivility are anger with the opponent and relegating the opponent to stupidity, or saying he or she is being absurd, or some such.
