Tell me they're not religious, they have a personal relationship with Christ.
Say they don't have enough faith to be an atheist. Quote from their holy books at every opportunity, regardless of the quote's suitability to the situation. Tell me that every quote I might make from their holy books exposing the plot holes is: a) out of context; b) not to be taken literally; c) a translation error and means the exact opposite in the original language; d) beyond my limited understanding; e) any combination of the above. Take a single word or phrase out of something I've said, ignoring the rest, and assume it's an open invitation to preach at me. Expect simple one-syllable answers to life's biggest questions, then triumphantly play the god card when we don't or can't answer. Even if we do give them answer, play the god card anyway as though we hadn't. Reply to a carefully crafted 1,000-word post with "Well, I don't bellieve it" or some similar dismissal. Kent Hovind Bonus: Maintain that Evolution is a religion just like creationism/ID, so has no place in American public schools; then in the very next breath claim that creationism/ID is just as scientific as Evolution, so it's only fair to teach it in public schools.
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist. This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair. Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second. That means there's a situation vacant.'
I generally become annoyed when theists talk in general.
I've been told that I'm morally deficient because I don't believe in their God. I've heard a theist say that his life is far better and happier than a friend of mine because my friend doesn't believe in a god. The ignorant statements go on and on.

Place a sign outside saying "no god freaks allowed, you're too freaking evil, weird, intolerant and depressing! Fuck off!" Seriously, ever end up with a party, tell'em their not invited. Too hateful. Better yet, block them from your life.

Mankind's intelligence walks hand in hand with it's stupidity. Being an atheist says nothing about your overall intelligence, it just means you don't believe in god. Atheists can be as bright as any scientist and as stupid as any creationist. You never really know just how stupid someone is, until you've argued with them.

In fact I've had one tell me that there's no such thing as atheists for that exact reason. If that were true, then I'd have to say that there's no such thing as theists either.

Whats yours? and yes theist we will make this fair and let you put in your thoughts about what annoys you guys and gals about us atheist The thing that theists does that annoys me is when they try to come up with a motive for atheism, whether it's the old canard about just wanting an excuse to sin (If I wanted to sin, all I'd need to do is become a televangelist and have an army of people who'd defend me if I got caught) or if they try to reduce it to sour grapes over a bad relationship with one's father (I'm close to my father, I live with him, and he's recently helped to fix my computer.) Fun fact: If a theist wants to know why atheists are atheists, just ask.

I was born with the gift of laughter and a sense the world is mad.
They have to find a "sign of god" in everything. I recently told a co-worker I was atheist after hearing her give a sermon at work (I'm new at the workplace btw), and literally a minute later this new, damn cat toy (yes, I work at pet supply store, and it sucks) fell off of the wall. I claim that it was too heavy for the hook that was holding it up, and I'm sure you can guess what she believed it was.
I also hate when a random person gives me one of those "God is thinking about you" pamphlets. I have asked if they wanted it back before because it was going to get tossed. Winning RE: What is the biggest thing that theist do that annoy you?

I hate the way that theists use philosophy to explain why god/christianity exists/is right and insist that because of this, it really must be right.
