Unknown is unknown! Hence, it is a belief!
As you frame it, indeed! The unknowable is, by definition, unknowable. But there is also “reason to believe” and missing from your comment is “good reason to believe.”
Claiming to know (to a degree) God is logical if the purpose in our creation is to know Him.
“Empirical Agnostic” here. The older I get, with the life experiences that come with it, helps to show me more of how there is so much I cannot explain with human understanding. Accepting that I can’t ever comprehend the extent of what I don’t know. And whatever sentience or Entity in that infinite realm does not need my comprehension, worship or obedience to continue to exist.
