Atheists, tell me, a Roman Catholic: why should I become an atheist?

When a Catholic wants to know what the catholic position is on something, we crack open the Catechism. Not the bible. And especially not the OT lol. Contrary to the protestant religions, in Catholicism, the authority of the Church comes first, before the words of the bible which are confusing and can be interpreted in many different ways. 
So yes, if you're claiming that Catholicism teaches that women are objects, you'd have to point to official Catholic doctrine that states such.

And that is why you don't argue the Bible with catholics.
The CCC is, unlike the Bible, a well thought out document. It's basically fool proof, even if it starts off with the wrong premise - there is a god.

The cathechism a foolproof document? It's simply a document with a lot of strictures crossed out and followed by "forget we ever said that", usually coming 50 years after every catholic has given up on the stricture as too stone age to live by.

Catholic dogma is a mess to an extreme extent, mainly because one of the few rules they are not willing to drop is "we are never wrong".
