[jlb4tlb]

Well, I believe in the tooth fairy, the easter bunny and Santa Clause. After all I am a father, so therefore my wife and I are all three.

[Shalot]

Are fairies little demons?

[farnoosh]

I beliven faeries and vampires and werewolfs and...so on.

[Pensive]

I believe in God and I do believe in fairies too. I also believe that the absence of proof is not the proof of absence. :)

I greatly agree about the absence of proof not being the proof of absence!!! Well said!!

[BibliophileTRJ]

Believe in fairys?!...... I AM a fairy!! Perhaps not the winged variety (although that would be cool); but none the less....

And, yes Shalot, many of us ARE little demons.

[Riesa]

Rachel? :confused: :p


sure, why not, there is one (fairy) right above me. (hey, he said it himself!) :) You could always become a pilot, Biblio.

and dragons were real, they were the last of the dinosaurs. ;)

[NikolaiI]

Yeats believed in faeries I think. Therefore, Irish and Celtic faeries come to mind.

Hey!!! I was going to say that!:lol:

I'm Irish. Like a lot of others in my country, i'm away with them most of the time!:p
Now Faerie is a over all term. You have your regular fairies that dance in rings under the moon in Raths and cairns. Then there are the elves, and the leprechauns. Pixies, dwarves, goblins, Bruneys(Brownies), Each usaig, sprites, pookas and many more.

[Nightshade]

Sure...they are always dancing on my grave in the moonlight.:lol:

But yes I guess I do belive in dragons , that they were some now extinct large reptile....its the only way to explain there seemingly consistan exsistace across so many cultures.

[Niamh]

theres still the komono dragon;)

[Nightshade]

yes more proof :nod:

[Niamh]

maybe we should have a fairy week next week!:D ( not an excuse to have my old avatar back....no no.:p )

[applepie]

I believe in faries, the fey, or whatever else you want to call them. I also believe in unicorns, dragons, and a variety of other things. I can't seem toquit believing that they exisit. I think it is one of the ways that I keep from ever taking life too seriously.

[NikolaiI]

There are some doubters even in the western villages. One woman told
me last Christmas that she did not believe either in hell or in ghosts.
Hell she thought was merely an invention got up by the priest to keep
people good; and ghosts would not be permitted, she held, to go
"trapsin about the earth" at their own free will; "but there are
faeries," she added, "and little leprechauns, and water-horses, and
fallen angels." I have met also a man with a mohawk Indian tattooed
upon his arm, who held exactly similar beliefs and unbeliefs. No matter
what one doubts one never doubts the faeries, for, as the man with the
mohawk Indian on his arm said to me, "they stand to reason." Even the
official mind does not escape this faith.

Is the world not beautiful enough without fairies?

Is the Majesty of the Universe not enough without Dragons?

Whose to say that faeries have to be beautiful? "Faerie" is an overall term for all of the ghoulies, and ghosties, and long legged beasties, and things that go bump in the night; whether they are glowing with light or wreathed in flame or veiled in darkness.
So, in answer to your question, the world would be too beautiful without Fey and the lurking creatures of darkness.
And majesty, like love, can never be too much.

Let me put it another way...is the World not interesting enought without fairies and gouls etc...?

Is the world not majestic enough withut fairies and goblins and dragons?

[NikolaiI]

But Lote, they stand to reason.

[Lote-Tree]

But Lote, they stand to reason.

What the fairies?

[NikolaiI]

Yes, the faeries. They stand to reason.

[Lote-Tree]

Yes, the faeries. They stand to reason.

No. They don't.

[Bakiryu]

I'm Wiccan with a dash of Romani (one doesn't have anything to do with the other). I believe in Faerie, Elementals, corners and the spirit of nature. Vampyres, and werewolves and fauns and the list goes on.


I love Faeries, they're mischievous, like moi!

(I'm even writting a book about them, specially the Sidhe!)

[Nightshade]

Well Im not sure I belive in them bu I do belive that they are not beyond the realm of possibility...personally I think the Faerie may have been what we call the Jinn in which case sure they exsist.
I think thats as a whole we are only inclinded to belive what we can see which is just boring!:D

[Demian]

I happened to be looking in one of my mythology books today and remember reading about the origins of faeries. The book claimed that the Celts worshipped a race of gods that dwelled in the hills (I can't remember what they were called) and eventually emerged from their underground caverns and transformed into the race of faeries. I remember thinking that this must be where Tolkein got his ideas for the fallen race of faeries in his books. Anyway, I do not believe in faeries per se. I do adhere to John Keel's idea on otherworldly phenomena; that the essence behind it all is veiled from us and our shfting perceptual eye is where we derive all these various names: gods, gnomes, sprites, faries, trolls, aliens, etc.

[Niamh]

The Gods of the celts were called The Tuatha De Dannan. They originally were above ground but forced into the underground world by the arrival of the Milesians.
