Well he did have a Messiah complex.
I've thought this myself, to excuse his behaviour you'd have to think he actually was the Messiah, because this whole sleeping in bed with kids thing and having to have them around you and fixate on your new little special friends and to always be surrounded by pics of children so you can look at them is just not a thing that people do unless they're pedophiles, of all the heart of gold people I know and those who help children none of them have an unhealthy obsession with kids, can't say I've ever known someone to get married and to still prefer the company of boys instead.
It's just not a thing.
It IS a thing however for pedophiles, they talk like Jackson, obsess over kids like Jackson and would love to do what he did if they had the opportunity to. He fits into this category perfectly. Everything is explained easily when he's placed into this category, but some refuse to see it and instead want to place him in a category by himself, the most loving man that ever existed, the most genuine, gentle, sweet, kind, angel man, who was destroyed by the 'ignorant'.
Ladies and gentlemen, the Messiah, Michael Jackson.
