Last wordism is the belief that victory can be obtained in a debate or discussion by having the "last word." Some argue that last wordism is often a characteristic of "less intellectually robust presentations."[1] Andrew Schlafly tries to quit while he is ahead by accusing people of last wordism, when only they are presenting their counterargument.
Last wordism reflects a lack of restraint, a characteristic of wrongdoing or sin. The ultimate in last wordism was the Crucifixion of Jesus, to which He responded with the Resurrection. Jesus is the ultimate example of last wordism.
