If naturalism is true, our concept of value and praise could not yield certainty in objective praise or value.
But if we claim to be certain of these things, it proves a supernatural origin.
How exactly are defining "praise?" The way you use it it sounds like it's some powerful thing that needs to be accounted for, but what makes you certain it's not just a human invention?
