Not Hinduism. The Vedas are not for "The Hindus". The vedas are for every man of every religion. Hindusim is an amalgamation of beliefs who worship various demi-gods. They do not believe in 1 supreme being.

Even if there are various demi-gods the idea of a supreme deity exists in Hinduism.
 Quoting: Vlad Tepes


Like I said, an amalgamation of various beliefs is what many people call "Hinduism".

Even Vaishnavas are lumped in with Hindus, but Vaishnavas do not worship only demi-gods. They worship a supreme deity, even though they acknowledge the demi gods are his supreme servants.

It's like this. The Demi-Gods are the various servants of the supreme deity. One does not have to satisfy the individual demi-gods if you can satisfy the supreme deity. The demi-gods are automatically satisfied when you satisfy their master. The same way that all the leaves of a tree are nourished when you water the root of the tree. You do not have to water each individual branch or leaf.

Kind of like Zeus and the Gods of Olympus?
 Quoting: HilosPP


Sort of. Zeus is more similar to the demi-god titled Indra. Indra is the King of Heaven and the God of Thunder. His weapon is the lightning bolt. Indra is not considered the supreme deity, but a very powerful demi-god none the less.

In the Vedas though, Indra is a post, a position, not a name. The person who is Indra can change, and has changed.

Many people believe that the Greek God Zeus and the Vedic Demi-God Indra are the same, but described in different languages and traditions that have changed over many generations.
