Praise and pride only make sense if context of free-will. To be honest, I don't know how to function without assuming to believe in free-will.
If takes an assumption of a soul for free-will to be possible, I would put hope in free-will existing, and hope there is soul, and act as if that's the case.
One reason is you don't want to act as if you have no control, while it's possible you do.
But there is no harm in the case of not having free-will, in acting as if you have free-will.
