It also seems extremely odd to me that a project with the goal of giving people free access to the sum of all human knowledge would engage in a discussion over whether or not it is appropriate for people to provide information about themselves on their user page.

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 marriagehttp://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.
