the 5 precepts
Basically, ALL religions claim to teach a message of Our Lord - and many of them have precepts that are very useful for daily life. It is up to you to decide which one, or which ones, you believe.
Atheism does not have a holy figure. Generally, holiness, relates to some kind of religion or god. A definition from Websters dictionary is " devoted entirely to a deity or the work of the deity." Basically, what makes someone holy is that they are very good at the precepts of a particular religion. Atheists don't believe in religion as they don't believe in god. So the idea that there can be a holy atheist is impossible.
Buddha himself came up with the five precepts as a way to help his students that weren't monks to live a life that is peaceful and full of happiness. The actions that are avoided by keeping the five precepts are actions that can lead to suffering. So, the precepts are a way of protecting yourself and others from that suffering.
