Public Conduct Research

FAITH Initiative

A public-safe research framework for documenting observable commercial solicitation within religious broadcasting without evaluating theology or profiling private individuals.

Research boundary

FAITH is designed to observe public-facing conduct, preserve source context, and distinguish documented patterns from legal or moral conclusions. It is not a system for deciding whether a religious belief, prayer, doctrine, ministry, or spiritual claim is true or false.

Public-scope principles

• Public sources only. No private communications, donor records, banking information, or private gatherings.
• No donor profiling. Individual donors, congregants, viewers, and other private persons are outside the research target.
• No automated accusation. A detected indicator is a data point, not a finding of fraud, criminality, or culpability.
• Evidence before interpretation. Preserve the specific language, source, timing, and context that produced an indicator.
