Not really. I don't care what they believe or why they believe it. HOWEVER...
It makes me mad when they push for their beliefs to become law. Like preventing stem cell research or abortion or gay marriage because of what they interpretted from a book.
It makes me mad when people are talking to you and automatically assume you believe the same as they do.
"God bless you."
"You should attend our church's sermon this Sunday! Our pastor is great!"
"How can people willingly be gay? Don't they see they are going to Hell?"
It makes me mad when you tell someone you are atheist and they automatically try to convert you.
It makes me mad when I turn on the tv on Sunday and see nothing but evangelicals.
It makes me mad when the only currency I can use says "In God WE trust" as if excluding all other people who do not believe that way.
It makes me mad when so much money that COULD be going to feed the hungry or rebuild cities destroyed in hurricanes and tsunamis are used to build excessively giant multi-billion dollar churches and cathedrals.
The list can go on and on...

Mad, no. In fact, most people who believe in a deity use that belief to better themselves.
Only the few who make it something they believe makes them better or more holy or more deserving are a problem. Even then it's not their belief that angers me, it's their hatred.

No...I only get upset when people refuse to acknowledge scientific evidence for how we came into existance. Like when they literally take the bible word for word to be the truth. There is no way this earth was created in six 24 hour days.

Not really. They can believe in whatever they want. I just get mad at stupid things that are carried out in the name of said deity.

(Again, we see the singular "atheist" in a question addressed to the plural "atheists," and the spelling indicates a lack of knowledge as to the etymology of the word.)
No, people are biologically predisposed to believe in something. There is a wide variety of expressions of that predisposition, and God is merely one of them.

It makes me mad that there are people willing to brainwash others into believing it.
The whole concept of indoctrinating children when they are young and impressionable is just wrong.

Sometimes, but I think they will eventually come around and in the future, the whole world will be Athiest.

It annoys me in the same kind of way that it annoys me to see people profess belief in alien abductions, ancient astronauts, astrology, ghosts, fairies, the evil eye and any number of other nonsense ideas. I don't like to see people hoodwinked into believing things that are unjustified, and I have the urge to help enlighten them.

No. Evolution programed them to believe in Gods.
