How is this different from what you are saying?
There is no relationship with accepting pasta and eternal pasta or exalted higher form of pasta. The nature of praise however is such that it increases in value, it has exalted ranks, it's origin is from an exalted source, and it's partially eternal. And God is close to us such that our praise is more of his praise and belongs to him more then it belongs to us. The same is not true of spaghetti.
