Reliance on faith alone rather than scientific reasoning or philosophy in questions of religion.

While not touching upon the religious aspects of this word, we have seen fealty come through the Good Doctor's doors.

I also came across the related word, fidicide, which can be either a killer of faith in general, or a breaker of one's faith/word.
Life is like playing chess with chessmen who each have thoughts and feelings and motives of their own.
