Let's pretend a teacher hands you page worth of math problems and you have no idea how to figure it out. An agnostic would just be like, I don't know how to do it, and would put his head down. A religious extremist would rant and rave about how they have the answer, but only the teacher knows if they are right, and an apatheist, well they would just be like who cares about the test, why does anyone care about good grades?
In that scenario you are assuming that there is some absolute answer that can be found, and that we have the means to find it, but the agnostic person for some reason doesn't think the answer can be found, and the apatheist doesn't care enough to look for an answer. Which is pretty much apples to oranges in comparison to religion.

I don't see how, when asked an unanswerable question, saying "I don't know" is lazy. Maybe if you somehow equate "lazy" and "rational" in your head.

In other words, I'm not agnostic because I'm lazy, I'm agnostic because I'm rational.
