If there is just one thing we can't be agnostic about, that would mean that we can't be agnostic about -anything-....by definition. We can be agnostic about some things, but my position is that our beliefs are among those things where the term does not apply.
I keep asking questions because I expect -different answers- gigglesticks. Not because I expect "my answer". Perhaps, and this is probably just me being hopeful, seeing how the answer changes will help us to understand what sorts of "things" that agnosticism even applies to.
You don't believe that I smoke elephants, do you?
You don't know whether or not I smoke reds, but you may be willing to believe that I do (or believe that I don't) if I offer more information.

I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
