You have the meaning of 'agnostic' wrong. It is not a middle ground between believing in god and not believing in him
'The more I learn about people the more I like my dog'- Mark Twain
'You can have all the faith you want in spirits, and the afterlife, and heaven and hell, but when it comes to this world, don't be an idiot. Cause you can tell me you put your faith in God to put you through the day, but when it comes time to cross the road, I know you look both ways.' - Dr House
“Young earth creationism is essentially the position that all of modern science, 90% of living scientists and 98% of living biologists, all major university biology departments, every major science journal, the American Academy of Sciences, and every major science organization in the world, are all wrong regarding the origins and development of life….but one particular tribe of uneducated, bronze aged, goat herders got it exactly right.” - Chuck Easttom
"If my good friend Doctor Gasparri speaks badly of my mother, he can expect to get punched.....You cannot provoke. You cannot insult the faith of others. You cannot make fun of the faith of others. There is a limit." - Pope Francis on freedom of speech

Welcome!
Just so you know how we use the term around here, atheists come in two broad categories: agnostic atheists, also known as weak or negative atheists, can be described as 'don't know and don't believe'. They wouldn't say there is no god or God, just that they don't believe there is. That's most of the atheists here.
The other category is Gnostic atheists, also known as strong or positive atheists, WOULD say there is no god or God.
Theists can be grouped similarly ('I don't know if there's a god or God but I believe there is' vs. 'There's definitely a God')

Welcome. Talk to staff team, I don't know if you can propagate against Islam here as an ex-Muslim because of the laws in your country. Perhaps moderators can give insight to this. Don't get yourself in trouble.
If you don't plan on talking about Islam in a negative light that would be ok I assume but not sure.

It's probably just that with his English he can't get the right wording across. In essence he's just saying he's not sure either way.
A middle ground between not believing and believing doesn't even make sense anyway. How do you see that working? For 12 hours of the day he worships and prays, the other 12 hours he's out eating babies?

No, not this forum, your country. If, as an ex-Muslim, after converting to another religion, you propagate your religion or you propagate against Islam, the penalty is death in your country. Watch this, minute 7:30:
