[Rant] Oh. My. God. He said no!

At first I was of the same opinion as the other posters who have replied to this thread. However, on reflection on the matter, I'm not so sure.
There are so many factors that go into situations like this and, ultimately, we are only seeing one point of view.
The last session I was in, for instance, I bitched a little about how I couldn't use spells from Masters of the Wild, however I was only kidding around. It is, however, entirely possible that the DM took it seriously and felt like I was being an ass.
I also know of one person who, when he DM's, makes arbitrary and unfair judgements that are always to the detriment of my character. He's my best friend so I guess that could possibly mean he feels some underlying hostility... hmm... anyway, the point is, is that I won't game with him as DM because of this even though he thinks he's entirely fair and reasonable.
I'm not saying you're lying or that you were a total butthead and he's completely right, but is it possible that he had some justification for his actions?
If not, then I agree, kick him out. It's can be a very tough thing to do but sometimes you have to be strong and just say... no.

Maybe he was just roleplaying so well that you couldn't tell?
"No... it- it couldn't have happened! They can't be dead! This is all your fault! (shaking hand at sky) You blew it up! Damn you! Damn you all to hell! It was Earth all along!"
Er... or, yeah, something like that...

Me as DM to "Bob":
"Well that's nice, Bob. Mature, really....perhaps you should return when you've grown up some. In the mean time, don't let the door hit your ass on the way out. Thank you."

"NO, NOT BLACK LEAF! NO, NO! I'M GOING TO DIE! Please don't make me quit the game! Please don't! Somebody save me! You can't do this!"
"Bob, get out of here. YOU'RE DEAD! You don't exist any more."

And now, with the non-believer gone, you can finally go to the secret TSR meetings and learn real magic!

Kill him.
Oh, er... no. Boot him.
Yeah, that's it, boot him.
Seriously, this guy obviously isn't enjoying himself anyway. You would be doing everyone in your group a favor.
Of course, maybe his girlfriend just dumped him. In that case, point at him and laugh. And then boot him.
Gotta get back to lurking now...
