You misunderstand. I didn't mean that Agnostics are agnostic because they haven't given it any thought. That's just the most popular excuse I've heard from people who choose to say.

The reason I don't accept it as a stance is because it's a politically correct cop out. They don't want to ruffle any feathers with their opinion, so they pretend to not have an opinion. You'll notice I say pretend. Even if it's just a naive inclination, I find it impossible that a person doesn't have some .1% sway on whether or not there's an infinitely powerful being above watching over everything you do.
