without having to believe that there are fairies
at the bottom of it too? "

Absolutely. I completely agree with you.
The question is not what to do with those who insist on believing in fairies but those who require that other people believe in fairies too.
""But the man refuses to let the doctor do anything before certain questions can be answered. The wounded man demands to know who shot the arrow, what his caste and job is, and why he shot him. He wants to know what kind of bow the man used and how he acquired the ingredients used in preparing the poison. Malunkyaputta, such a man will die before getting the answers to his questions. It is no different for one who follows the Way. I teach only those things necessary to realize the Way. Things which are not helpful or necessary, I do not teach." - the Buddha, in reference to a question about the existence of God.
