You'd eschew using your right to free speech and clam up about it? Take it like a man?

If so, you're a very rare Christian, indeed. 

That isn't a fair comparison, because Christians are common as dirt in this country, so it would be easy to find someone who would serve him.  To be a fair comparison, it would have to be that many businesses would refuse to serve him, like black people experienced 3/4 of a century ago.

The "if" indicates that the situation is hypothetical. I wasn't drawing a complete comparison, as should be obvious; I was comparing the treatment at the service desk, not the social attitudes of any given pair of historical eras. 

I was asking what his feelings would be based on the actual treatment he received. It's pretty simple.

I'm still looking forward to his answer.
