andrewflnr 10 years ago tl;dr author agrees with Chesterton.This article uses the word "fallacy" really oddly. I was expecting criticism of Chesterton's fence parable, not just a repetition. bjterry 10 years ago I agree, and it was really a letdown. I was curious what would be the best argument against Chesterson's fence in the abstract (obviously arguing against it in specific cases is done all the time).
