So why does someone have sex with someone of the same sex? Well if consensual, it is highly likely to achieve happiness or pleasure. Now not every one may agree on this, but it is not beyond the scope of reason to view it this way. You're still being intolerant Mavdog to others who don't believe as you do. That's OK if that's what you want to do, but don't whine about being called out on it.
guess you missed "the sole or chief good in life."

From your insistence that we should tolerate those who hate and discriminate, you would certainly have said that the South Africans were justified in apartheid, right? After all, using your rationale we should just "tolerate" their discrimination of black africans....ridiculous.
The actions of White South Africa are quite different from Keyes statement of his belief? Where does it speak of Keyes advocating opression of anyone? Where does it speak of keyes avocationg anyone be physically harmed. Where does it speak of Keyes asking anyone be denied a say in self government?

Please answer KG's question.
