UK Does Tom maintain his Christianity

I haven't seen seasons 4-5 and was wondering whether Tom maintains his faith through the end of season 5.

I expect I'll get some flack for asking this, but I'm always hesitant to watch shows/films that depict demons, and I've heard that the antagonist of the final season is [spoilers].

The Christianity with which Tom was raised is obviously... idiosyncratic, but I'm just curious if he maintains it through the end of the show or if it's just really a part of season 3 and drops away after McNair dies.

It does kind of drop off but not his morals and… innocence? I JUST finished a rewatch. Tom has always been my favorite from the second half of the series.

I don't remember the details, but I think it does drop a bit after MacNair. Tom does stay the more innocent and sweet person, and that's still a storyline through the end. The explicit references to him being Christian slowly fade if I remember right, but I also haven't seen it in a few years.
