To build on Void's point, Boney did say that Faith would involve us completely stopping this line of research barring the incredibly low chance of getting Ranald's support.
I'm pretty sure the chances of getting Ranald's support weren't stated as "incredibly low" but rather that we just have no way to know at all beforehand what Ranald is thinking and how he'll react... thus we can only have "Faith" in our own perception of Ranald.
I must admit, I'm a bit amused (not in a bad way) by how "Faith" that Ranald isn't gonna mind is a huge part of the "Truth" lobby's success.
