That is not its intent and is not a method I'd allow. Tower of Faith is meant to be as a defense against mental intrusion, not self-inflicted stress.

Ha, cute! Given that the context of the passage says, "Strongly held beliefs enable you to protect your mind from the aggression of others," I'm assuming it wouldn't count for anything self-inflicted. The passage in Evo says the absolute minimum is 1 stress. No exceptions are offered. (Except sponsorship, like I said.)
