You shouldn't. That's kind of my point.
Most agnostic atheists, I think, have no problem saying "there's no such thing as unicorns". But when presented with the god hypothesis, they weaken their position and say "I'm agnostic on the issue. It's unknowable, but I don't actively believe in the existence of gods."
Why should we treat the god claim any different from the unicorn or leprechaun or superman claim?
