Take your time.

Considering the logic that lead to an answer of "yes", is it too far fetched to substitute "fairies" for "god"?

Take your time.

Concerning Fairy tales what harm would belief bring?

As a child they are often/were used as a easy to remember tale of warning or cautionary by nature. As an adult the meaning still can be extrapolated and used to keep one from falling into foolish situations.

Where fairy tales become ludacris to believe is when they are compared to scientific 'tales' that demand your total allegiance. Therefore one is made or programed to think no 'good' can come from anything besides a 'scientific tale.'
