As an atheist you lack belief in any deity.
As an agnostic you claim not to know.
The lack of proof supports your agnosticism, not your atheism.
You're stating that your atheism rests on your agnosticism. Which is a positive claim of belief: no proof justifies this belief (to you)
Yet as a Christian, I have no positive proof that God exists, the lack of any sort of verifiable evidence doesn't do the hard work for me.
As a Christian I have belief in a deity
As an agnostic I claim not to know
Therefore your automatic conclusion, that deity is falsified by lack of verifiable evidence, must be false.
