Probably one of the most annoying things is the morality argument. They think their morality is better because they get it out of a book, because a violent deity that demands your love and loyalty is somehow an upstanding moral figure.
Or when someone says god will come to you if you humble yourself correctly. How arrogant is this deity, that wants you to spend your life searching for something that may not exist, before he maybe comes along and confirms it in some way?
And of course any time you read a verse that makes this god look bad, you're just not interpreting it correctly. Or it was a different time and place, because god's laws are constrained by the contemporary views at the time, for some reason.
Calling atheism or science a religion is pretty up there too. Or saying that christianity is not a religion, that it's a personal relationship.
Honestly there are a lot of annoying things theists say. We could be there all day.
