Slight confusion maybe?

I was teaching a Yr7 class once about the fact that faith was the ability to believe in something that you cant see.  I had used the example of religions believing in a God they cant see and asked the class to think about things they might believe in that they needed faith for.

After a couple of minutes I asked for some feedback and one of the lads piped up,

"My dad believes that we have fairies at the end of the garden.  Ive looked and you cant see them but they must be there.  He was at the end of the garden the other day and I heard him talking and he kept saying 'Fairy Nuff' over and over again!"  

Its very hard not to laugh when faced with the bizarre!
