Unfortunately Pelé was a womanizer. One good act does not wash out the bad.
I think there needs to be nuance in recognizing people who were great, not just boxing them as either good or bad since at the end of the day, they were still people with faults.
Both stand on their own in the same person. Of course, like God, we would like to enhance the good in people, and diminish the bad, helping them to become better versions of themselves
