No.1 who said the tooth fairy was a she it's a myth of old made up to fool little kids to get their teeth pulled. Plus during this time of growing they lose more than one tooth so these tooth fairies which are no more than mama and daddy or uncle's and aunt's and grandma'a and grandpa's had to reach down in their pockets and hand bags quiet a few times to keep these kids minds occupied with this fairy. Just like after a few years they find out that santa claus isn't real they eventually find out the same thing about the tooth fairy. But when we see miracles happen as children, and even as we become adults and see the world for all it's beauty and splendor. We see people walk away from accidents that no human could have possibly walked from, we hear about and see people that the doctor has given up to die and they are still here, healed and doing well. We see people come up from nothing to something, we see how God uses other people to help others in disasters and so forth. This proves that God exist. We have the proof that the tooth fairy doesn't exist, because our parents eventually tells us the truth that they were the tooth fairy. We also have proof that God exist because regardless what has ever happen in our lives, or will happen in our lives not one of our love ones can say they are or were God. Faith is the substance of things hope for; the evidence of things not seen. Furthemore, no one likes having a tooth pulled so who's going to put their faith in a tooth fairy.

Faith doesnt prove existance, it allows you to expericence existance.
The tooth fairy does exist. I recieved money because I lost teeth as a kid. -Because my parents believed in the spirit of giving money in the name of the tooth fairy.
What you believe, you will eventually experience.
Believe good people exist, you will eventually meet one. Believe no one is good, and even if you meet one you will never be trusting enough to see it. Good Luck.

Answer: Because Faith and beliefs are an end to themselves.. When acting with faith we CREATE the reality we are desire.
When acting on evidence, we merely deal with what was already there.
To act only on what you can see, is to never make your own way.

Faith does not prove anything. Religious faith is merely belief that something is true, without having proof of its truthfulness. If people KNEW that God existed, they would not need faith; knowledge and faith are incompatible.
"God is real, fairy-tale characters are not," theists say. Yet they have no more proof for the existence of God than they do for Santa Claus. Each religion claims a different god and says all the other religions' gods are not real. Why should I accept the claims of one over another? If I'm supposed to have faith that BibleGod exists, why shouldn't I have faith that Ganesha, Osiris, Quetzalcoatl, Zeus, Vishnu, Marduk, and an endless host of other gods also exist? There is no proof for ANY of them, from any religion. Faith is useless.

There are facts that prove God's existance. The tooth fairy is based off of a fairy tale. There are no real facts to prove she is real which is what we learn as we get a little older. it was our parents the whole time.
Let me ask you this:
Is George Washington real? Do you have faith that our history books are telling us the truth to "prove" his existance? Or do you see the facts the prove his existance?
Faith does not prove anything. Facts prove existance. And we have plenty of them for all the proof we need. Faith is simply your trust in believing those facts to prove something in which you have never seen for yourself.

According to Hebreww 11:1 faith does not prove existance, faith is the evidence of things that we cannot see - God.

How many adults do you know who believe the tooth fairy is real? Not the best comparison.
Everybody places their faith in something, whether it be a god or whether it be a theory that was made over 100 years ago. Neither one can be proven in the sense we can see it or touch it. In both cases a large part of your faith is there because of something you read. I believe in the Judeo/Christian God. Have I seen Him.... no. Have I felt the power of Him yes. The most modern science backs up creation more than anything else. Whether or not you believe what the Bible says, we do have approximate dates that the original books were written. Those book include prophesies that have come true. That is fact.

There is no evidence of a tooth fairy.
The evidence of an Almighty God is deomnstrated by His mighty acts all around us and in our personal lives. Listen to that still quiet voice and stop trying to come up with reasons to not acknowledge Him.

This is the way I see it.
I don't believe faith *proves* anything. If you believe hard enough you'll get a 5 Million dollar raise tomorrow, does that mean it will come into existence? No. The existence of something is "proved" by us measuring its effects, anything that exists interacts somehow with the rest of the world.
Also, first something exists, then we believe it exists. Not the other way round. :-)

I think it's the other way around...
Existence should prove faith....as faith alone could not prove existence.
BTW...do u really have true faith in tooth fairy?...

Faith does not prove the existence of God, but this world we live in proves His existence. You would not look at a building and suppose that it didn't have a builder. Nor should you look at creation and suppose that there is no creator
