Most honestly do not bother me, it's the purists that I have a problem with. I like some above me have a problem with stupid people, people so inherently lacking in their logic and ability to reason/work out problems. I generally dislike people who cannot make rational decisions based on evidence provided, who try to marry religion in science in such a way that finding real answers in their convoluted world-views is impossible.
If you are religious for personal reasons, if it makes you feel good, then I generally have no issue with that. So long as you know why you believe, but if you have no idea of what it is that you believe, and only believe for the sake of believing in something, and still find the necessary backbone to challenge me on an issue, I will eat you alive, and take a considerable amount of pleasure doing it.

"In our youth, we lacked the maturity, the decency to create gods better than ourselves so that we might have something to aspire to. Instead we are left with a host of deities who were violent, narcissistic, vengeful bullies who reflected our own values. Our gods could have been anything we could imagine, and all we were capable of manifesting were gods who shared the worst of our natures."-Me
"Atheism leaves a man to sense, to philosophy, to natural piety, to laws, to reputation; all of which may be guides to an outward moral virtue, even if religion vanished; but religious superstition dismounts all these and erects an absolute monarchy in the minds of men." – Francis Bacon
