If I were to praise Sauron (from lord of the rings), is that proof the Sauron is real? Of course not. Why isn't it real? Because praise can be given to anything including things that don't exist. That is why giving praise to god is NOT proof of god's existence.
See what I meant here: Post 33
That post asserts extra attributes of praise that are not demonstrated or justified. For example, "praise is in fact light from God" and "praise in ourselves and the knowledge of praise in ourselves is of the signs of God." These are asserted not justified. So there is no reason for me to accept such a bias definition of praise.
