So by telling him to pack up now and leave means that you don't believe that this is a pluralist society because your encouraging him to leave the society over his beliefs?
Part of the price in democracy is that you're not always going to have things go your way.

Seriously, it's a hollow threat. If your citizenship is contingent on which flavor a duly-elected government is, then maybe this is not the place for you.
