I wonder, is this page necessary? I assume the user in question in the only example is the same user who created the page. Also, the link given contradicts the statement. The link says that the user was blocked for being a persistent sock puppet, and no blocking discussion that I found centers around the fact that you are a Christian, despite the removal of that information from your page.

One of the complaints about Hornetman16 (besides dozens of uses of images against Wikipedia policies, his sock puppetry, and his tendency to make false edits to pages) was that his user page looked, more or less, like a myspace page. The problem wasn't specifically his statement that he is a Christian, but that it didn't need to be formatted in < big> tags. Other eyesores were removed from his user page as well and he was chastised multiple times under WP:NOT#MYSPACE [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WP:NOT#MYSPACE]. There are thousands of Christian users with overtly Christian user pages on Wikipedia whose accounts are still active. - [[User:Solstice|Solstice]]
