Not sure this 100% comes under moral standards but wanted it open to both genders so here it is.



Understanding the Need for the Last Word

Psychological Insights

People who insist on having the last word often exhibit certain psychological traits. This behavior can stem from:



Low Self-Esteem: Individuals may feel insecure and use the last word to assert their worth.

Arrogance: Some may struggle to accept differing opinions, believing their view is superior.

Aggression: The need for the last word can reflect a desire to dominate conversations, often disregarding others' feelings.

Childhood Influences

The need to have the last word is frequently rooted in childhood experiences, such as:



Middle Child Syndrome: Those who felt overlooked may seek attention by dominating conversations.

Competitive Environments: Growing up in competitive households can lead to a fear of losing arguments, prompting a need to always be right.

Emotional Abuse: Individuals from emotionally abusive backgrounds may develop a fragmented sense of self, leading them to insist on being correct to feel validated.

Communication Dynamics

Insisting on having the last word can hinder effective communication. It often results in:



Shutting Down Dialogue: This behavior can prevent open discussions.

Alienation: The person demanding the last word may alienate others, making it difficult to maintain healthy relationships.

Understanding these factors can help in addressing the behavior and improving communication strategies.

Now who wants the last word?

I have said many times, ML will outlast us all.

God has THE LAST WORD.

In Christianity and on Christian sites, I think THE BIBLE should have THE LAST WORD.

"What is written?" "It is written...." "It is also written...." "Do not go beyond what is written." "What do the scriptures say?"

There are various movements with various opinions This is an open forum. It is also a Christian site.

"As iron sharpens iron, so one man sharpens another."

Such is now popularly translated, "As iron sharpens iron, so one person sharpens another."

More we are dulling another here.

There is one offense and another. There is mud-slinging and insults.

I'm willing for a truce and I am willing to limit some responses to scripture. But confrontation produces confrontation and the assaults are never ending. I have left the site a number of times because the mud-slinging here. Forums are ruined with insults and go off topic. You won't find that ending. I tend to agree with nomoreusernamesleft on his response to one. Maybe I should fast and pray. But I don't think there'll be any change. Someone is intent on a position. Some just ruin it for others. Some like to make others miserable. Scripture gets discarded. Great if the Bible were not discarded. For us, the Bible should be the last word.

God is the Alpha and the Omega.

God is the beginning and the end.

God is the first and the last.

When all is said and done, in the end, God has THE LAST WORD.



Yep! Many here may have mental illness. One form of mental illness or another.

How many people have their act together that are on this site?

I think wise people don't get on here.

This is a place for flawed people to meet flawed people.
