I believe that I have an experience with invisible dragons. The experience by all that I can distinguish, is real. Does that makes dragons real?
The truth of it would be on you to prove, if you were motivated to convince others of their objective existence. It could also be that dragons was the best way for God to reach you, or it could also be attributed to something sinister, or even mental illness.

For example you are at home watching a very sad movie although you know that the events portrayed on the screen are not real you connect with the actors on an emotional level and cry. This is a perfect example of what I mean.
Let's say that the emotional connection we form with the characters is the only cause of feeling this. Isn't it a part of the human condition to believe what we see? I mean centuries ago you couldn't view anything except for what was real. The ideas were there, the concepts of things that are intangible. Theatre, and the arts, literature, etc are all written from another's perception.

The problems I had with atheism were precisely the points of proof. Then with the lack of this it's easy to say there's nothing inherently good or bad in something. Since qualities can't be proven to extremes it naturally follows that they too probably don't exist. Whereas, despite being imperfect - taking a path of faith without evidence allows acceptance of absolute truth inherent in the meaning of life.

Therefore invisible woodland fairies are real.


And they told me there is no such thing as "God".
Is this true? I could argue that the fairy was like the snake of deception Wink Shades
Besides this, even Christian doctrine allows for the truth in other faiths of the same God. It is only that the Christian God is the way He reached me. I wouldn't understand God properly otherwise.
