Why are deists so annoying?

They believe some cosmic force started the universe and just left it as is. There's no doctrine that they're forcing others to follow. No punishment for not believing in it or following said convoluted message.

Unless there's some other kind of deist that thinks we should restrain our exploration of space lest we anger the creator.

I may be wrong, but deism seems to be the least invasive religion out there, and I'm more concerned about these extremist followers of abrahamic religions running around than deists.

I've only encountered it a few times myself, but I think what Blackout is talking about is when challenged some deists assume the same indignance that some theists do. As if the lack of doctrine or attendant creeds to their religious belief somehow makes it unassailable or not deserving of criticism. Especially when some deists pull the "look how unreasonable all these Christians/Muslims/Jews/Hindus are, with all their doctrines. I just believe in a creator, so much more reasonable" card.
In every country and every age, the priest had been hostile to Liberty.
