I'm not convinced he's a paedophile in the strict sense.

It's sort of like William F. Buckley's description of Pat Buchanan's antisemitism - while there's no direct evidence, he's made it impossible to defend himself against the charge. You would think that continuing to have kids sleep in your bed after you've paid out millions of dollars to settle what you call a false charge would teach you something. Billy Graham for example doesn't let himself be alone in a room with an unrelated female - not presumably because anything would happen but to avoid "misunderstandings".

Obviously Michael Jackson does not have the wisdom of Billy Graham. The latter is shameless about the company he keeps; comfortable and up front about sleeping with children. People in show business are not all that concerned about giving the appearance of impropriety.

For some reason although I am scandalized by paedophilia, I am neither surprised nor scandalized from what I know of Michael Jackson. He certainly needs to be told and disciplined to refrain from sexual contact with children if indeed he has engaged in the same. Let the reader beware: evil can justify itself in many ways.
