I apologise for equating God to the tooth fairy
While the evidence for God is very similar to the evidence for the tooth fairy there are important differences that make it deeply wrong to equate the two. 1. Believers in the tooth fairy have never waged war on believers in wood sprites etc. 2. Believers in the tooth fairy have never committed acts of terror in her name. 3. Believers in the tooth fairy don't give cash and obedience to obvious sleazy child molesting confidence men. 4. Believers in the tooth fairy don't claim non believers are degraded immoral monsters. 5. Believers in the tooth fairy don't attack our freedoms and constitution in the name of their beliefs. I therefore apologize to all tooth fairy believers for comparing the two opinions and promise never to do it again.
