The title confuses me, per IATIA's dictionary definition. " a gnostic" and "agnostic" give it completely different meaning IMO. Gnosticism is very interesting from a historical perspective, especially to people wanting a better understanding of the bible and catholic doctrine.

Although "agnostic" and "atheist" are mutually exclusive, in practice many self-identifying atheists are technically agnostic. Myself included. As a Dawkinism, I'm agnostic about god as I am agnostic about fairies at the bottom of the garden.
blessed are those who have not seen and yet have believed.” – John 20:26-29
