Once you take into account past present and future you can use "agnostic" and "atheist" at the same time.

If CURRENTLY your switch is "off" on all past and present claims so far, you are an atheist. You can be unsure about what might come about in the future the "agnostic" in "agnostic atheist".

I am pretty strong as far as the future being "off" as well, although "semantically" and "technically" I don't know.
