better than atheism which makes an absolute, irrational judgment IMHOP - Agnosticism can just imply you haven't figured it out yet.
Also, i wouldn't throw out organized religion - there are centuries - eons of collective memory and 'wisdom of the ages' in relgiious orders - most of which have evolved organically - and within those structures you have the freedom to explore as opposed to the 'make your own religion' approach.
Its like trying to 'make your own science' in my opinion.
