Nothing more logical than agreeable, but since you insist, agreeable then.

Important is going to hinge a lot on WHAT it is important FOR!
If you want to know the true answers, obviously just being agreeable isn't going to get you very far. On the other hand, if you need cooperation from others, being disagreeable will get you nowhere.
Usually, I find my way among such things by considering the most extreme examples possible. So what if there were two answers: one is perfectly agreeable and also perfectly illogical, and the other is perfectly disagreeable and also perfectly logical. Which is the best for the most situations?
There can really only be one answer of the above two. If something is perfectly disagreeable, nobody - even you - would accept it, even if it were the best of all possible solutions. And this answer isn't even that... it's just logical.
Thus being agreeable is GENERALLY more important than being logical, much as I might prefer it to be otherwise. We can even logically prove it, ironically enough. So it goes.

Thats very contradicting because in this lifetime what is logical is not always agreeable and what is agreeable is not always logical... therefore this life is too complicated to have one way or the other but I guess it just depends what type personality you are for your opinion on that subject... Personally mine would be what is more agreeable so everyone can be happy... more control freaks would say logical

Depends on the outcome you want to achieve.
What is logical may be the "correct" answer but will not satisfy the needs of the group that has to deal with the situation.
What is agreeable may be "incorrect" but will satisfy the needs of the group and allow them to function in a manner "acceptable" to the majority of group members (not necessarily all the members).
Being "right" is not always the "right" way to solve a problem.

LOGIC!!!! Who cares about being agreeable. To many emotions get in to choices. Nothing better than sticking with the cold hard facts.

To me the only important thing is: That which is truly Anomalous.
BTW, if I may ask: Why couldn't it be agreeable AND logical (as in Non-linear Logic, for instance)?

Logic is agreeable for rational beings. Simply because something is perceived to be disagreeable, does not negate it's validity or truth. If people are incapable of agreeing upon logic, it is not a deficiency in logic, which is truth, but a deficiency in our fallible perception.
In cases where the truth is in opposition of conventional thought, I simply disregard the popular majority. People can happily (and ignorantly) agree upon fallacies, personally, I'll find the truth.

Logic takes a little more effort to mold. Agreeability can be forever beaten into someone quite aptly. For example, I will never disagree with my father about the color of the grass ever again.

what is agreeable it usually what goes over best. but what is logical can usually be made in to what is agreeable.
