Faith in a religion is belief in a wide range of practices and rituals. Mere dislike of certain beliefs practices which may appear to be evil to you does not take away your faith in the religion. You might be practicing many other rituals and practices of the religion. Then how can you presume that you have lost faith. In every religion, the followers differ on certain practices which they feel are not just but they continue to have faith in the religion in your case hinduism.

Hinduism (Sanskrit: हिनà¥à¤¦à¥ धरà¥à¤®, HindÅ« Dharma, also known as सनातन धरà¥à¤®, SanÄtana Dharma) is a religion that originated on the Indian subcontinent. The term Hinduism encompasses many religious beliefs, practices, and denominations. Most Hindus believe in a supreme cosmic spirit called Brahman, who is worshipped in many forms, represented by individual deities such as Vishnu, Shiva and Shakti. Hinduism centers around a variety of practices that are meant to help one experience the divinity that is everywhere and realize the true nature of the Self.
perhaps you should look into different religions that more so follow your beliefs

No it means you are being Americanized
essentially you'd rather play the freedom of religion game than
take Hinduism as it packaged by your culture

There is a great number of people like you who feel dislike about their religions for different reasons. It is the problem of all the religions.

It means you are searching for Truth, and until you get to IT you will always have no faith in whatever you are believing at the moment. I encourage you to study other religions, particulary revealed Religions Islam, Christianity and Judaism. Nobody else will be punished on the Judgement Day except you so it's your own responsibility to save yourself. Good Luck.

That means you are actually looking for some --ism not the true philosophy.
