Eh. Kinda. Not really. Depends.

The Atheist who opts to not believe in God: Not really. They can be annoyed if you pressure them but 'easiest'? No.

The Atheist who is outraged by even the notion of God and will fervently attack anyone expressing a belief in God: Defiantly a contender.

One thing that constantly annoys me is that Atheists seem to assume that they are on equal footing with religious people and they're perfectly willing to co-exist while the religious people are shoving it down their throats. In reality religious people make up the vast majority of the worlds population and have done so for thousands of years. Much of human history has been shaped by it, many nations have had religion be a driving force in their history, and the majority of their populations still subscribe to some form of religious belief even in 'non-religious' settings. This is ignoring that, technically, atheism IS a religion, just one in which the belief in no God has replaced the belief in a specific deity.

So, naturally, when you get a bunch of people talking about their plans for Sunday a lot are going to mention church. If something comes up revolving around religion most people are gonna care. With over 80% of the population worldwide being religious atheists are surprised when they find religion surrounding them and act oppressed.
