    • 2004 August 2, Jeff Thomas, “Re: Most atheists have what I call the Don Quixote Syndrome.”, in alt.atheism[1] (Usenet):
      Isn't it extraordinary that the two qualities out of the thousands of qualities that exist, that the two most necessary to maintain religion are also the two qualities that God demands; belief and faith. What's wrong with goodness and truth alone as two qualities that god might cherish most? Such religions do not survive, that's what. They have evolved over time by survival of the "faithiest".
    • 2010, Marci McDonald, The Armageddon Factor: The Rise of Christian Nationalism in Canada, Random House Canada, →ISBN, page 338:
      Instead of scrapping Bush's Office of Faith-Based Initiatives, he expanded its mission and named a new twenty-five-member Advisory Council, prompting Gilgoff, the founder of Beliefnet's "God-o-meter," to dub him the "faithiest" president in American history.
    • 2012 July 17, Steve Thorngate, “Morice-Brubaker takes on Douthat”, in The Christian Century:
      Ross Douthat's gotten a lot of pushback for using his soapbox to complain that liberal Christianity lacks "a religious reason for its own existence." And with good reason—it'd be nice if the national paper of record's faithiest columnist could at least spin a fresher argument against us mainliners.
