Judaism is not only a religion, but also a culture and an ethnicity. That is why there are atheist Jews.

As for Buddhism --- it is possible to follow the philosophy without believing in any deity ---- but if Buddhism is *traditionally* atheistic, there are lots of traditional Buddhist teachers who haven't got the memo.
