Chuck- Agnostics apathetic?

While I concede that softcore agnostics are apathetic about theistic 
concepts, I do not believe that such is necessarily the case with 
hardercore agnostics such as myself.  I do have a strong personal 
belief in the existence of a metaphysical universe, even professing 
to have directly encountered metaphysical beings and the like.  I 
simply do not believe, however, believe that a singular cosmological 
supergod (omniscient, omnipotent, omnipresent) can be known by the 
finite mortal psyche.  And although I acknowledge the existence of 
interdimensional beings, I do not acknowledge them as gods.
