No one presupposed god to be a fairytale Jeff. Quite the opposite. God just so happened to be a fairy tale, ah well, live and learn. Trusting someone does not make any given extraordinary thing more likely Jeff. Whether or not someone ardently believes they are conveying accurate information does not make any extraordinary thing more likely. If drugs and nuts are the limits of why you might imagine that your mother spun such a yarn then the reasons that you feel that this sort of trust is compelling are becoming very clear to me. You've never actually dove into our thought process, our ability to decieve ourselves and others, or the unreliability of our senses and memories.
The kicker though, is that you are actually talking about faith, not trust. Im guessing you hope to pull the old equivocation rug at some point in the near future? You don't have a point, you have complaints about reality.
