Exploring other belief systems is part & parcel of what being an atheist is.
Having said that Buddhism didn't hold my attention for long, it carries too much baggage from Hinduism which has become my point of focus.
Buddhism itself I mostly know from it's Japanese incarnations via Musashi and Munenori.
Hinduism and the Mahabharat / Bhagavad Gita have place on my bookshelf alongside Homer, Olympian Mythology and the Prose Edda.
Mostly just entertainment, but occasionally useful if some theist starts asserting that his jumped up bible-study course makes him a theology expert.
