Beyond the fact that this verse says that fools deny God, not that denying God makes you a fool, the word fool here means a corrupt and evil person. Basically it says that corrupt and evil people justify their actions by saying to themselves, "there is no God to answer to", and then follows it up by saying no such evil person does good.
