Atheism is rather in the lip than in the heart of man.

Atheism is rather in the lip than in the heart of man.

Summary

This quote suggests that atheism is more of a superficial belief or expression rather than a genuine conviction rooted in one's core values or beliefs. It implies that many individuals may claim to be atheists verbally, but their innermost beliefs or instincts may still harbor a sense of spirituality or a belief in something beyond the material world. In essence, it proposes that there may be a disparity between what someone claims to believe and what they truly hold in their heart.
