Nope. It's not bad to be anything. Satanist, Atheist, christian, Jewish... Whatever you feel is right, and not what everyone tells you is wrong.

Gee, some people don't know what it means to be an agnostic. I'm technically an agnostic myself and it's the only real, logical position.
There is no real, empirical evidence to prove his existence. So I cannot say that God exists, because there is no evidence to back up such a claim. However, I cannot say he doesn't exist, because likewise, there is no evidence that would prove a deity couldn't exist.
If there is no evidence for either position, then what is the most logical one to take? Agnosticism.
That is not to say that Christians/Muslims/Flying-Spaghetti-Monster-followers are wrong. That is not to say that atheists are wrong. They're not even less logical than we are.
It's just that Agnostics have a certain point of view and neither theism nor atheism seems right to us. Personally, I lean more towards atheism, but with increasing evidence you can gravitate towards one side or the other.
However, this does not even address your question properly. The question is not whether it is bad because other people think so, but whether it is bad because it doesn't suit you.
Does it suit you? Do you feel comfortable with agnosticism? If you do, then how can it be bad? It's not as if you're harming anyone with your belief.

Whether or not something is bad is a matter of opinion. My opinion is no it is not bad to be an agnostic. I think its healthy and Honest. I also believe everyone is agnostic and many just pretend not to be.

Absolutely not. It means that you have a mind of your own and are willing to be open to ideas. Agnostics don't know that there is or is not a higher being, angels, devils, etc. But we also are not dead set against such a thing, like Agnostics.

being agnostic is not bad, just means you dont know right now what to believe in.

Well some agnostics can be flip-floppy on whether the think god exists or not and it can get annoying but its alright I guess. I hope they pick one eventually.

No It means that your thinking.
That's always a good thing.
Its a lot better than having someone tell you what you are supposed to think.

Of course not. No opinion is "bad" as long as you have sound reasons for it.
