1010011010 has a point, People seem to think the 3 questions he just asked/answered are the same question. I'd even say that "Do you believe in God?" and "Do you believe God exist?" are two different questions.

To 'believe in' is to "have a firm conviction as to the goodness of something(Dictionary.com)," One would have to believe in the existence before he could believe in the goodness. So, to both of the questions; "I am agnostic." is not a truely valid answer because you don't have to know to believe.
