Bob Marley paraphrased this in his song, "Jah Live!"
"Fools say in their heart, 'Rasta, your god is dead.'"
I don't really believe the Rastas were right in their idea that Emperor Haile Sellassie was God, but I'm certain that God is up there watching over all of us, every day.

A tasteless interpretation of the passage cited. It's the assertion that engenders self-denial. However, affirmation occurs also "in his heart". Instead of respecting the integrity of the text, the questioner is abusing it, venturing outside the heart that necessarily concerns itself with God, with the ultimate things that a heart (fig.) struggles with, to disparage signs of the struggle. Fool, spare me your generosity.

The fool says in his heart there is no god. The wise man shouts it from the rooftops.

all fools are not atheists, though, are they? a vast majority of fools profess to believe in God.

FYI, citing a book that the person you're arguing with doesn't accept as authoritative doesn't make you more convincing.
