In Parshat Korach (the Torah Reading this week in Israel, next week in the Diaspora) we learn about the bitter end of people who argue with Torah authorities.
A person has to respect and honor his Rav - his Torah teacher - more than his parents; his parents look after his needs in this world and his Rav is ensuring him a good place in Olam Habah (Heaven).
Degrading a Torah scholar is so severe that a person can loose his place in Olam Habah (Heaven) for it.
One needs to stand up when ones Rav enters the room.
