Geez, I wish we'd get an unfulfilling explanation out of AJW to dismiss the things he doesn't already believe, at least that'd have some entertainment value. Unfortunately, all we get is "that doesn't make sense," and then... that's the end. Just that. It's actually very sad how little effort he's willing to put in.
Definitely a lower quality chew toy than what we usually get.
