A lovely sentiment. Unfortunately, not one that can be implemented in any social sense.

Morality is an inward battle where every man must play his own champion. And even if successful, evil cannot be eradicated, not entirely.

Only overcome.

Christ spoke out against doing things to look good; that is why humility is a value.

Well, suppose you do something simply for the sake that it is good, but you wind up looking good even though that wasn't your intention for doing so.

Would that then be an affront?
