This is the way I deal, too.
Buddhism for me is also a topic, a study of historical importance
and value, it has historiographies, critiques, arts, etc. Since
destiny put me into academic shoes and occupations, I love
reading and discovering what this field has to offer in many
different ways.

------------------------
My view is that Buddhism is not dogma, rites or rituals but a
collection of techniques to alleviate suffering. These
techniques are practiced by some people and are successful. They
are not practiced by other people and/or are not successful.
Arguing about them is like arguing about the best way to hold a
putter in golf. If it works, it works. If not, it doesn't.
