Such an existence makes no difference in how I behave towards myself or towards other people. I am capable of managing my own moral behavior. Probably I also like to describe myself that way because I enjoy the neologism. I tend to describe myself as an Apathist -- it is of no importance to me whatsoever whether God (or any god(s)) exist.

As it is I go with this definition- agnosticism is about knowledge. atheism and theism are about belief. What you are stating for atheism would be strong atheism under this scheme and what you give for agnosticism would be weak atheism. As it is, a good number of gods are impossible, while others are simply meaningless. If you stretch the meaning large enough you can get things that exist- and probably fall under Clarkes third law.
