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

[Pat Mustard]

I cannot see any valid interpretation of that passage, or any other instruction regarding women in the bible for that matter, that isn' "women, know your place!"

Wow.  You really cannot see any other valid interpretation of the bible than a literal, fundamentalist one?  Makes me wonder if you hold every book to the same standard.  Is every novel just a blatant confabulation of no use whatsoever, or can a story have some other meaning?  You wouldn't be a fundamentalist atheist by any chance?

Well when every utterance in a book about women is deeply misogynistic, you kind of have to take it at face value. And the religions which base themselves off that book are themselves deeply misogynistic.
