I label myself an "agnostic atheist" not because I see god's existence as a legitimate, probable scenario, but more because I can't say for certain that a god does not exist.
I guess that's what I'm getting at with the OP. Why can't you say for certain GOD does not exist? You know where the concept came from, you know why the concept doesn't fly, so how is it rational to think these primitive people were actually onto something?
Is it rational for me to be agnostic towards the existence of Dr. Who?
