They probably do, but reported sightings have not convinced most people yet to validate proof of existence of these creatures. Yet there are a lot of unexplained things in these world that we have not seen yet with our own eyes but we believe exists, and gnomes may be one of them.
The year was 1955. A certain Mrs. Margaret Symmonds and her husband were en route to Florida for, I assume, a summer vacation away from their hometown of Cincinnati. Little did they know that before their vacation in Florida, they'd be taking a detour through both Stockton, Georgia - and terror.
At around 3:30 a.m., Mrs. Symmonds was driving, while her husband slept in the back of the car. As they drove, she became aware of four small figures on the road ahead of her. They were around 4 feet tall and gray, appeared to be wearing capes, and were standing together. She thought that she had interrupted the little men digging a hole in the road, since one of them seemed to be carrying a stick. One of the figures moved apart from the group and she got a good look at it: The little man was wearing a slouch hat, had a turnip-shaped head, a long pointed nose and small mouth, huge eyes that glowed red, short legs, and long, thin arms that ended in claws.
Naturally, Mrs. Symmonds let out a scream that woke her husband even as she swerved around the little monsters. When she'd calmed down enough to tell him what she had seen, her husband wanted to go back and investigate, but she had had quite enough monster-related adventures for the evening. So they continued on to Florida, leaving the little men to go about their business.
The description of the gnome-men (or dwarves, or goblins, or whatever you want to call them) is similar to a handful of other cases that have been reported, such as the case of the Hopkinsville Goblins from that same terrifying year of 1955. Generally, gnomes are reported to be about three to four feet tall, have short feet that end in claws or suckers, long arms that end in claws, giant glowing eyes, big ears like those of an elephant, tiny mouths and long, pointed noses. In the Hopkinsville case they were reported to have worn silver suits "like metal plate"; a case in Canada claims that the little guys were wearing lime-green jumpsuits.
There are theories about the little gnomes. The first is that they are some type of space alien. The "proof" for this is that they seem to act a lot like the occupants of UFOs - curious in a sort of bored, detached way, they like to engage in what seem to us as pointless activities, and though they're not aggressive, they will defend themselves with great zeal. Occasionally, as in the cases from Hopkinsville or that particular Canadian one, the gnomes are sighted going into or out of flying saucers. A problem with this theory is that sometimes the gnomes are reported when there are no UFOs in evidence, such as in the case of Mrs. Symmonds.
So whether you believe it or not, you decide.

Gnomes absolutely do exist. Without Gnomes, nothing would grow (gardens, etc.).
Have a lovely rest of the day.

No, they are a fictional race, as are elves. Fictional races are an allegorical cloak in fantasy literature, and they're about the only permissible way left to teach people about the existence of racial differences. The fallacious but official doctrine of racial equality has made most people afraid to use any other means.

the genuine question is: "do you somewhat exist?" Watch "The Matrix"... in case you've faith in gnomes, possibly you'll actually position self belief in "The Matrix", and if so, possibly you'll trust that you do not exist... in which case, who the hell cares if gnomes exist or no longer?
