When the question was put as to whether agnosticism is a valid viewpoint it meant the kind of agnosticism that is levered in between atheism and theism as if it is a "third way" between the two. What you have said Legal is that you are an atheist, thats all that needs to be said in my opinion. Anything else is superfluous. Agnosticism on its own says nothing about what you believe and beliefs are the engine of personal reality.

Atheism is merely absence of belief.

Atheists believe free will is illusory and non atheists believes death is illusory.

Agnosticism can mean many things...to me it basically says "maybe there's something out there, who knows" with a shrug of the shoulders. I think I would like to be an atheist, maybe one day I will be, but I do enjoy finding out about all the different faiths and philosophies, there's nothing wrong with an open mind.
I have definitely rejected Christianity in all it's forms...amazing as JC's message is, the bible just ruins the whole thing. Judaism and Islam are in my spiritual recycling bin too, there are positive tenets in all of these faiths that can be learned from and the rest discarded...
after all thats what most Christians do!
