If tooth fairies don't exist (which is likely) they are ridiculous. However if God exists (which is possible) it is very relevant.

As a member of a religious community (in which the majority are religious) it is the Atheists challenging the status quo, they must justify their beliefs to me.
The primary 'reason' you should believe in the possibility that God exists is that there are so many questions unanswered by science. Most people believe in the possibility of Aliens existing on other planets - why not include God, Angels and Demons in this belief?
