Which are you again?
Well the definition I have says that you don't believe until definite proof can be shown.

added on edit...
From Websters New World Dictionary:
agnostic-n.
[coined (1870) by Thomas Henry HUXLEY < A-2 + GNOSTIC] a person who believes that the human mind cannot know whether there is a God or an ultimate cause, or anything beyond material phenomena.


To me, that says there isn't a God until you can prove to me there is a God.
