Rory Williams has neither fear nor faith in any external forces.
I don't buy that. That is what the show was suggesting, but I don't think it's true. Rory may be a lot braver than he was, and he's certainly tougher, but he was pretty freaked out as recently as the dollhouse episode. But as it turned out, the minotaur wasn't feeding on fear, anyway, so it was sort of a moot point.
I think Rory does have faith in things and people as well, although perhaps he doesn't have a guiding faith that would be strong enough for the minotaur to feed on. Someone else mentioned that Rory's biggest faith is his faith in Amy, but that isn't a blind faith--he does see and acknowledge that she's not perfect. So maybe it was too down to earth as faith goes?
