I find Ricky Warren shallow, superficial and more like Jim Bakker or Swaggart. Sorry bub! Saddleback is a cute trend and his "let's all be just like me" game is somewhat cultish. But YOU are sooooo much more "spiritual" since you paid the $$ and bought the horrid book! :)

I haven't read the book. And there's no need to be smug and condescending. I just find it distressing that Christians tend to bash one another so incessantly over a jot or tittle of doctrine when much of what we believe (NOT the basic tenants of faith, but the more or less extraneous volume of denominational doctrine) is subjective.
It's much easier to construct our Byzantine maze of pharisitical "thou shalt not believe XYZ" than to love one another with Christ's love, as He commanded.
