I kind of get your point on agnosticism but I can't simply say I have no reason to believe there isn't a god. If I go down that path then I have no reason to believe there isn't anything anyone cares to tell me they believe in that cannot be proven.

Yeah. I'm pretty much a complete skeptic. I see the basic survival assumptions
(causality for example) as matters of faith, so I'm coming from a pretty extreme
point of view.

The atheism/agnosticism thing seems much more of a sliding scale than a distinct separation of ideas.

Not for me. I've always seen the atheist attempt to suborn what agnosticism actually is defined as
as somewhat dishonest. Too often it feels that the atheist is straddling the fence: claiming that obviously
one cannot KNOW that there is no supernatural behind it all, but at the same time regularly mocking any
belief that there is. I wouldn't want to be associated with that kind of behavior.
