Lack of evidence is not evidence!
No limits have been set. Science will consider all theories with evidence to support them. Theories without evidence that are not derived from logic and previously discovered truths, will be left to religion.

In the end, this all comes down to evidence.
This is NO peer reviewed evidence for an afterlife or God.
Those who chose to ignore this fact, remember that you are typing on one of the pinacles of scientific achievement: computer -> Transistor -> Quantum mechanics. The modern world is built on logic and evidence (aka science).
If you disagree with the scientific method, feel free to turn off your computer, TV, lights, mobile phone, give up flying and turn down that life extending medical treatment.

The difference is more than semantics
An agnostic's mind is "open" to the possibility, but would need a lot of evidence to be convinced. This is science.
An athiests's mind is "closed" to the possibility, regardless of the evidence. This is religion.

Ah_So: You are describing a person who is "strongly agnostic". People are often mislabeled as "Atheist", when in fact they accept the possibility, though not probability, of a God.

Everyone has the right to believe in an afterlife, however irrational that may seem. The problem comes when people commit irrational acts upon others based on that belief
