I lost faith when I actually gave the issue some thought instead of just accepting what other people had to say to me. I was sitting in a train and it all just suddenly clicked: it CAN'T be like that! That and my grandmother who is ultra-religious, who while not forcing her beliefs upon me, showed me how misguided it can really make you if you get too drawn into it...
My distrust and dislike for people in general was also another factor, people lie all the time, try and twist your views, try to control you. I believe that's what religion was invented for, a way to control people - I'm sure they meant well, but that's no reason to lie.
