Yes. The unfortunate thing is that the prevailing American opinion of MJ, parts of which I referred to above, is not fact based, yet, over time, it has come to be accepted as fact. Although many people dismiss my "opinion" about MJ without hearing my support, I feel that my statements about MJ correspond far better with the facts.

Yup. And my opinion is that he's crazier than a sh*t house rat.

I find it very implausible that he had all of this surgery (from the 80s up until recently) to look less attractive. And he obvioulsy isn't on the same playing level as the majority of adults because adults with morals do not sleep with children that aren't theirs in their bed.
I don't understand what evidence you have to suggest he is crazy, rather than eccentric.

I am not suggesting that MJ had surgery to look less attractive, but rather, that he had it to change his appearance to a more child like one.

He is not on the same playing level as adults: yes, that is true. He is, emotionally, a child. To him, sleeping with children is like sleeping with peers. He has stated that to him, "sleeping with" and "bed" do NOT have a sexual connotation. To MJ, sleeping with children is like having a sleepover. If MJ were 35 years younger physically, nobody would have a problem letting him participate in a sleepover. But people do not understand that, despite his physical advancement beyond the childhood years (which he is trying to counterattack surgically), he is still EMOTIONALLY the same as a child.

The old cliche of "don't judge a book by its cover" is especially apt here, since MJ's physical age is far beyond his emotional age, a discrepancy that came as a result of horrible abuse, and compulsory performance. He never could sleep over with friends as a physical AND emotional child because he was basically imprisoned by an abusive father. Now, he is physically an adult but STILL AN EMOTIONAL CHILD. And without a tyrannical guardian, he is trying to experience childhood again.

So, I do not understand why this behavior is immoral. It is just different and unexpected in our society. It is not immoral--he is not doing anything wrong. If acting like a child is what he needs to be happy, well, just let him be.
