Summary

The phrase "I am a daylight atheist" implies that the individual does not believe in or acknowledge the existence of any deities or higher powers during the day, suggesting that their atheism is more prominent and apparent when they are fully awake and engaged in the everyday world. It might reflect a personal stance where their disbelief is not just a quiet or hidden belief, but one that they openly embody and express during their regular daily activities.
