It's not unusual for faith to be tested, when there are natural disasters and such many ask how did god allow this to happen. It's not negative to question belief it's quite healthy as you are able then to rationalise and reaffirm it once the shock of the disaster has passed.
I think you're misunderstanding what I was saying.

I haven't mentioned anything about testing faith or questioning belief in general.

I was talking about the notion the article puts forward that "If you say ______ out loud you are an atheist, if you don't you are a believer". Silly simplification they are putting forward based on this 'study'.
