The diversity of philosophy in early Christianity is really interesting, I'd advise anyone from the most evangelical of Christians to the most evangelical of atheists to study it with an open (but not uncritical) mind. At the very worst, you'll have gained new insights into what might have been had history worked out a bit differently which is always really interesting in my opinion. Love it or loathe it, Christianity has had an enormous influence on Western civilisation so if that's where you hail from it will always be something worth knowing about and knowing about from a neutral perspective.
