Weak agnostics differ from strong agnostics in that they believe the existence or non-existence of god ( s ) might yet be proven by science or philosophy.

Weak agnostics simply feel that humanity is not there yet, weak agnosticism is not a belief or faith which one can hold in the light of extreme amounts of rational coherent scientific evidence to support the existence of god ( s ), " godlike " entity, or non-existence, so if it can be proved, either way, then the weak-agnostic will acknowledge it.
