Genuine virtue does not need signaling.
One of the very few Biblical verses I know chapter and verse, and perhaps the only one in the Gospels is Matthew 6:5-7
And when thou prayest, thou shalt not be as the hypocrites are: for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and in the corners of the streets, that they may be seen of men. Verily I say unto you, They have their reward.
But thou, when thou prayest, enter into thy closet, and when thou hast shut thy door, pray to thy Father which is in secret; and thy Father which seeth in secret shall reward thee openly.
But when ye pray, use not vain repetitions, as the heathen do: for they think that they shall be heard for their much speaking.

I was a huge fan of Mad through most of the sixties. It had a major effect on shaping (warping?) my sense of humor.

Me too, especially Mort Drucker's film and TV parodies, which were nothing short of brilliant.
