[quote name='camoor']Two things:
1) Agnosticism is a statement about the metaphysical realm in general. To limit it to the God question misses a ton of religious views.
2) Brilliant people have written tomes on the question of whether or not the spiritual ream/God/etc exists. Anyone who is not agnostic for at least a small part of their life is either simple in the head or just not being honest with themselves[/QUOTE]
Agnosticism is a method and not a view, at least according to the person who created the term.
Beyond that your second point is just stupid. I have never been an agnostic, in your sense of the word, because this is a question that can be answered. If group a says god exists, and has no proof, god does not exist. Simple. Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence, of which there is none, and as a result there should be no such need/thing as agnostic view points at all.
