and if for that reason I am called a fundamentalist, it makes sense too.

But when killers, kidnappers and terrorists are labeled as fundamentalist due to their brutal actions......and at the same time I am also labeled as fundamentalist due to my adherence to basics of my religion, it makes mess of religion and crimes where the whole social ideology becomes suspicious.

As for as defining one's religion is concerned, in my opinion it is individual's responsiblity to select. If one is literate and has access to religious books/material, it's very easy to find the truth, provided you have quest for that. In case someone is not much literate he has to rely on available information / scholars but still can find the truth if he/she is sincere. So, one has to define his/her religion by oneself. In any case, you can’t blame the society if you are away from religion or you have been influenced by a non-religious concept.
