   Agnostic isn’t “against” an idea; it admits “I don’t know and I’m not going to pretend to, either”. Often enough, the question warranting that answer isn’t half so well-posed as those presenting it would have you suppose; in which case the answer is really “I don’t even pretend to know what you mean by the question you think you just posed.” Many such questions are shibboleths, in any case – the question doesn’t need a meaning, the point of asking is for the answer to be a declaration of (or of lack of) allegiance to some group of people.
