Wiley/Culbertson is a standard, well-received text on Christian Theology.

Standard for whom? Well-received by whom? Anybody, including heretics, can write a book, as St. Vincent of Lerins makes clear.

You should care, because you would want to know what another side, at its best level, is saying.

I do care in *that* sense. But if the authors do not have the approval of the magisterium, then by what authority do they presume to speak for the Church and teach the Church?

It is enough that you care in that sense.

Now you know what another side thinks and how they arrive at it.

But if the authors do not have the approval of the magisterium, then by what authority do they presume to speak for the Church and teach the Church?

Please list all the names of this "magisterium" of yours and their credentials and just where their authority comes from???
