Or, maybe more accurately, agnosticism is the refusal to exercise rationality in the first place.

Actually, agnosticism is the least rational. If one is at liberty to believe anything, than it makes much more sense to tailor a set of beliefs to one's inclination, not to live in perpetual suspension........

I keep telling people that, but because of belief systems many people are not able to appreciate the argument. Perhaps if I argue the clean and pure structure of Agnosticism? - that is to say, no structure, or infinite structure- since it embraces everything, without believing in anything, maybe then people would get it. No, probably not.
