Correlation Between Agnosticism and Intelligence

When I was asked that what is the correlation between agnosticism and intelligence I immediately replied that agnosticism means zero intelligence. Why did I say that?

An agnostic is defined as follows in the dictionary: a person who believes that nothing is known or can be known of the existence or nature of God or of anything beyond material phenomena.

The reason I say that this is zero intelligence is that this is simply blind faith. The agnostic is convinced that nothing is known or can be known regarding the existence of anything transcendental. Where is the evidence for this? It simply blind faith. The fact is that God can be known by those who approach Him with love. This is confirmed as follows in the Brahma-samhita (5.38):

premāñjana-cchurita-bhakti-vilocanena
santaḥ sadaiva hṛdayeṣu vilokayanti
yaṁ śyāmasundaram acintya-guṇa-svarūpaṁ
govindam ādi-puruṣaṁ tam ahaṁ bhajāmi

"I worship Govinda, the primeval Lord, who is Śyāmasundara, Kṛṣṇa Himself with inconceivable innumerable attributes, whom the pure devotees see in their heart of hearts with the eye of devotion tinged with the salve of love."

And it is confirmed by all of those who have fully given to their love to God.
