Whereas my gnosticism is based on the simple fact that I am not required to plumb the entire universe for novel godlike things in order to confidently state that no one is staring over your shoulder..watching you piss...making sure you don't shake it enough times to count as masturbation.
In my experience (and opinion), much "agnosticism" is predicate on the social or subconscious proposition that to say that gods do not exist is somehow a relatively difficult claim to demonstrate, or impossible to demonstrate. That it's "heavy". It isn't, that's just what the religious have been bleating for centuries, is all. Undue deference of concept.
I know that there are no gods as much and for the same reasons that I know the sun will rise tommorrow, or that there are five digits on my hand. If these things do not count as knowledge, then nothing does, and the terms gnosticism and agnosticism have no sensible referent.

I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
