It seems to me that an agnostic is best defined by simply looking at
the Greek: "one who does not know".  The agnostic simply does not know
whether a god exists but is willing to believe if suitable evidence
(other than scripture) appears.  I suppose this is a reasonable
definition for how I feel.  An atheist is perhaps too close-minded
about the subject.  A god could be anything from some general energy
field to nature to beings with vastly superior technology, etc.
