You have to have more faith in your own beliefs and values.  Your 
reaction is not entirely wrong but be careful not to react to 
intolerance in kind.  Question why you seek to have your values 
validated by news.povray.org.  News.povray.org is what it is.  Different 
people, different views,... a loose set of objectives that do, in fact, 
limit content, and behavior, in some ways.  Make your case as rationally 
as you can, then leave it at that.  It is expecting too much to expect 
personal validation from the situation. This is only a victory for 
narrowmindedness if you choose to accept it as such.  Stay open minded 
yourself.  That is all that you can really do.
