A complex way to make an excuse for not having the courage of your own convictions.

Many people who accept the agnostic label do not understand that Huxley saw the question of knowledge to be un-solvable. It is not that one doesn't presently know or isn't certain; it is that one can't know. Inherently. Mostly, because theism fails to put forth a scientifically valid, falsifiable god hypothesis.

I have come to see agnosticism and atheism as two sides of the same coin. Agnosticism is the knowledge side; one cannot have knowledge. Atheism is the belief side; absent knowledge, one cannot form supportable beliefs. One can only play the odds. And the "odds of gods" are truly awful. So awful that it's a reasonable semantic shortcut to say "there is no god", although, technically what we're saying is that there's no evidence for god and we don't expect to see any.
