For those who don't know, Deism is - Belief in a divine creator, but doesn't play any part in our lives. Some claim he abandonded it, some say he "stepped back." I'm not sure which one it is.
One reason I can see Atheists being a bit annoyed by Deism is because, if you think about it, Deism is a step right behind Atheism. You'd might as well just ditch the all powerful creator, because you're already 95% there.
So on a scale of reason (1 being no reason, 10 being most reasonable), Atheists may put Christianity at a 2, Deism an 8, Agnosticism a 9, and Atheism a 10. Maybe some might switch Agnosticism and Deism..
In my personal experience, I went from:
Catholicism -> ??? -> Agnosticism -> Deism -> Atheism
