Its not the only intellectually viable position, God is a baseless concept. It is an abstract thing used to explain the unknown based on nothing more than our early ancestors limited knowledge.

God is a philosophical argument.

I see agnosticism as lazy. It takes the concept of God from religion, Yet ignores his/hers/its characteristics.

I used to live in a room full of mirrors; all I could see was me. I take my spirit and I crash my mirrors, now the whole world is here for me to see.
