Elvis Presley's dead body would answer FAME.

One could argue that the proverbial "15 minutes of fame" in reality can sometimes last a lifetime if it changed how the individual decided to live.
There is no right answer to this question because fame and faith aren't necessarily mutually exclusive. If your faith led to your fame, which would be more important? It really depends on what you do. If your calling is to evangelize then faith alone will not reach others however positive publicity and fame will allow you to reach so many more.
Fame when compared to Faith seems to have a negative context but Fame is actually defined as "widespread reputation, esp. of a favorable character".

Having said all that though, don't discount the importance of Faith. It's very important.
Cya.

Faith goes farther than fame. Fame is short-lived and wont give you farther. Fame could easily be reached while faith has to come from the beginning of life up to death.
Thanks for asking. Have a great day.

I think the road to fame always comes to a dead end at some time in life but the road to faith is having a longer life span till you loose your hopes and willingness to stand on nothing but the blind confidence on faith ..so everything finally depends on you how long you can last on the journey to fame or faith in this one lifetime .....I would like to keep the road of faith to my road to fame ...and see where i end up in which hall ....on a frame with my name ....here lies ....mr.......born.....Died.....Forgotten .....RIP.

The road to fame is often shortlived while the road to faith gets resurfaced and upgraded constantly the further we travel.

Take note what the bible tells about FAME it says "For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul?Mark 8:36 But by faith it says in John 3:16For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth (FAITH) in him should not perish, but have EVERLASTING LIFE.
Fame no profit... Faith there is everlasting life

Fame ends right where it started. From zero, one rises to his 100...only to learn there's nowhere else to go but slide back to zero. Fame has the shortest road to travel. It's shining, but it's shaky. It's applausive, but it it's thorny. It's dazzling, but it's momentary.
Faith offers a road that overshoots even the farthest of stars. It's long enough to keep one going ---even beyond his due breath.

Fame is fleeting. Faith lasts forever.

the road to fame leads you to a cliff somewhere down the road...
the road to faith leads you to all eternity...
"Even though I walk
through the valley of the shadow of death,
I will fear no evil,
for you are with me;
your rod and your staff,
they comfort me.
Surely goodness and love will follow me
all the days of my life,
and I will dwell in the house of the LORD
forever."
