It depends upon what information. If a userbox states that the editor is a
catholic or methodist or whatever that's ok. Although I still don't think a
userbox should be used for it. If a person states "This user supports the
Global Illegalisation of *same sex
marriage<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Same_sex_marriage>
*." or "this user hates George Bush" I do mind. Although I do personally
agree with one of them, and I am pro same sex marriage.

Well, I took a brief look at the RfC for Kelly, and apparently one of
the deleted userboxes was "User_Christian". Maybe that was done for
copyright reasons though, I can't really tell.
There is a problem, of course, with determining where to draw the
line. I'm not so sure that can be done objectively.
