There's hardly ANYONE who is an angel in this world, Bakery! We've all done things we wouldn't like others to know about, it's human nature. You could go through a list of all public figures, one by one, and I bet they've done things or been associated with this or that, supported this or that etc. that would have purists saying that's not on. I've met enough public figures to know they are just human like everyone else. I am sure if I had the fame and money some of these folks have, or supposed to have, I'd be as big a ratbag as some of them are supposed to be too. Even without being famous or being in the public eye there are some things I won't talk about - and folks who know me, would know that is pretty hard to believe (I'm a jabber jaws ;D). Jesus and the Pope ;D

Jesus and the Pope ;D there is not enough credible written documentation to know what jesus was really like and the pope was a member of hitler's nazi youth

Sure would be. A can of worms that difficult to open without being overtaken by irrational debate based on blind faith & ignorance. Kinda like trying to argue with supporters of the Jest. & as a neutral comment, (yes, neutral) spend a bit of time looking up Bipolar disorder (if anyone doesn't know what it is) to get bit of an understanding it's not quite as simple as depression, is life long & often leads to suicide.

I actually share a townhouse with someone who has a mild form of bi-polar disorder... and who refuses treatment. Its really not a fun thing, for those who have it or those who live with those who have it.... I have to double check that my door is locked at night to ensure I don't get disturbed by my housemate.
