Are you agnostic about Animism, or ghosts? How about Unicorns and fairies? Flying carpets and genies? A matrix-like world?
If to any of those you said "no", why are you giving the concept of god special treatment? What evidence gives it extra credibility?

See the thing is, anything could be true, and most atheists you talk to will admit that, but to the extent I can say anything does not exist (from any mythological creature to made up concept) I can say god does not exist.

Yes, it's possible in the same sense ghosts, unicorns, wizards, and flying pigs are.

Why does that verse look familiar?

> † Ezekiel 23:20 †

> There she lusted after her lovers, whose genitals were like those of donkeys and whose emission was like that of horses.

That's not the passage.

Why? What sliver of evidence supports a belief in a god?

Agnostics are less intelligent than the religious. Religion gives a reason to believe in god. Agnostics are just scared of truth.

there are different kinds of agnosticism. you clearly have a very specific picture of an agnostic built up in your mind, though.

> there are different kinds of agnosticism
Yes, all involving "not knowing" the truth about god, or saying it's unknowable, or that they aren't certain. Like I said, any atheist will agree with an agnostic on that- you can't technically know.

But whatever flavour of agnostic they might be, my question is still applicable: are you equally agnostic about any of the mythological creatures and concepts I mentioned? If so, you are just as agnostic as any atheist.

> you clearly have a very specific picture of an agnostic built up in your mind, though.
My argument applies to the broad range of people that call themselves as agnostic.

Good luck getting a straight answer from someone who, despite absolutely no evidence and no belief in a traditional religion that gives a indoctrinated basis for faith, won't admit that it's unlikely there is a magical being who created the universe.
