Isnt agnosticism a more honest intellectual approach to the existence of God?
There may be invisible unicorns. However, this is highly unlikely and we have no evidence that they do. Since we do not know that they do not exist a more honest intellectual approach would be to allow for the possibility. I however will say that I do not believe invisible unicorns exist.

What a sloppy argument, typical of the atheist who doesn’t know why he or she doesn’t believe. It also is a slap in the face of the theist, so it’s a twofer.
I don’t believe that gods are invisible unicorns, or angry old men in the sky, or any other atheist tropes. I believe in a God who created the existing universe, and who has left evidence in creation - in the human mind and heart - of this fact. Of course, we could be merely conceited amoebas, and this evidence an emergent phenomena due to the complexity of our brains. But we don’t know. And that is why agnosticism is a better state than atheism if you are not convinced of the existence of God.
