The issue I had with calling myself "agnostic" is that most Christians think of it as "undecided" (which it isn't), so they'll try to convert you. If you tell them you're an atheist, they're more likely to leave you alone (in my experience).

Most Christians think athiests just hate god. Basing your stance around irrational people is, itself, irrational.

I don't. I'm still an agnostic. I just don't tell people that if I think they won't understand and it isn't worth the time explaining it to them.
