Why Agnostic Atheism may not be the most logical stance.

Actually you can't. In the case God is real and there is a link to him (a way of sensing him), then it definitely is not the most rational.

What I'm stating, is from the agnostic weak atheistic perspective, that possibility should remain open, and hence, it be admitted, that it's not necessarily the most rational position one is necessarily taking.

Note, it can be the most rational position the person feels they are taking, but it won't necessarily most rational possible position to take.

So you dismiss the possibility of a caring God?
