What?
I don't understand what the difference is. Why would you be able to know god exists if it does exist, but you couldn't know the invisible dragon exists if it does exist?
What extra quality does the hypothetical god have that the dragon is lacking?
I explained this in the reply to the leprechauns.
Also, note, my argument never says it's more logical to believe in God because of this. All I'm stating, give the agnostic stance, and the possibility God exists and is also knowable, it maybe that agnostic atheism is not the most rational position to hold, and this possibility should be admitted from the agnostic atheist perspective.
