Do Fairies exist?
In 1920 Sir Arthur Conan Doyle in the Cottingley Faeries case believed the photos to be genuine. Though the girls who took the photos later admitted that they were fake, they always maintained throughout their lives that they had seen the fairies and that one of the images was not faked.
Fairy has been a part of our culture for as far back as we can trace. When Christianity arrived it tried to sweep away much of our pagan mythology and beliefs. Fairy became demonised as did most everything else, but fairy never disappeared, along with the Green Man and other spirits of the land they continued dwell in our imaginations, links between ouselves and nature. For something spiritual to exist we must first acknowledge it, perhaps as we enter a new age of awareness concerning the planet's ecology we will once again learn to share with nature and respect it and also return fairy to the status they are entitled.
