Buddhists do not worship any Gods but the founder of Buddhism is the Buddha (Siddhartha Gautama) and He is greatly respected.
There is no diety in Buddhism. The Buddha was never a god. He did not consider himself one, and when asked, he denied any claim to divinity. Buddhism does not call for the worship of any diety, although one can still worship God... Buddhism is not a religion but a practice... a philosophy. There are Christian Buddhists, Jewish Budddhists, et cetera. I myself am a Buddhist and I believe in God and I believe in Jesus. :-) Buddhism is very accepting.

Buddhists believe in no immortal, all-powerful beings, gods or deities. The Buddha rejected any idea of a creator deity along with any discussion of how the world was created. He did this because it he felt that any discussion of these were worthless as to the problem with suffering and dissatisfaction. He stated that clinging to a belief in a God or Gods was just another form of attachment which deluded us from seeing the world as it is.
