It's just when their purpose of disagreeing is not to educate, understand, promote discussion, or even challenge ideas, but rather to simply show just how ignorant the poor believer is that I become annoyed.

My first post in this thread was a very lengthy discourse that took me years to assemble in my mind - one that I've discussed with dozens of people, and thought might initiate some interesting discussion. I posted solely with the intent of sharing, and hearing some feedback from people with more religious leaning than me. The complete lack of response led me to believe that people would rather deal in sound bites.
