No, it just means that you take different meanings into account from many religions, that you are spiritual and not religious, and that you more of a logical realist. I'm agnostic and have questioned the same...I believe in the basic principles of life: be good to yourself and to others. All things in moderation.
Namaste.

An agnostic would not be certain that there is a God. If faith means belief without evidence, then being agnostic would mean that one lacks faith.

Being agnostic means that you believe in a higher being. It could simply mean having faith in the universe. Sometimes, when I need something or when I feel a loss of control, I put things out to the universe; things always work out.

Agnostic means you don't believe in God or the Devil.
All people have faith in some way.

An agnostic is simply some one who either claims ignorance
on the subject of Theism or is simply afraid to make a decision
either pro or con for God. You could say that an agnostic in
western society is basically a coward. At least an Atheist or a
believer is willing to take a stand on what he or she knows or
thinks they know.

(This is solely my understanding.. I could be wrong.)
Generally, an Agnostic has faith in a higher power, but just doesn't believe we can know the rules for sure.
An Atheist does not have faith in a higher power.. just themselves.

depends what your faith is in. You are still searching if there is a God, so you can't really have faith until you know for sure. Because "faith is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see"

i think being agnostic is a very intelligent choice .. leaving yourself open to possibilities , not taking anything at face value , believing in a creator without committing yourself to a group who say their creator is best
no I'm not agnostic :o)

I think it means you don't know how things stand and saying you are agnostic is just stating that. It's just as valid as anyone elses' belief so don't let anyone make you feel less for it, including yourself.

EVERYONE TENDS TO QUESTION WHAT IS DIFFICULT TO BELIEVE. THERE IS A SCIENTIFIC EXPLANATION FOR EVERYTHING IN THE BIBLE.
IT MAKES IT VERY DIFFICULT TO JUST HAVE BLIND FAITH.
HOWEVER THAT IS WHAT IT WOULD REQUIRE.
AN AGNOSTIC SIMPLY DOES NOT HAVE THE FAITH NOT TO QUESTION OR DOUBT WHAT IS ACCEPTED BY MOST.
