Okay, it gets thorny here. But, you're right - I misspoke. The USCCB said that. I'm going to have a post below this responding to another post directed at me regarding teaching authority, etc. so please take a gander at that.
I wasn’t the one who made the sweeping generalization to a shallow Protestant theology. I wasn’t the one who initially lumped Baptists, Methodists, Lutherans, etc. together into one shallow bunch. I simply accepted your premise that Protestants could be viewed as a single unit.
I actually double-checked my original comment before posting to ensure I didn't call all Protestant theology shallow. I said "some branches" - the top-level "Protestant" label applies to Christians who left Rome and rejected her authority. I still maintain Rick Warren theology is shallow. I wouldn't make such a statement about Lutheranism, Calvinism, Anglicanism. I think they are flawed theologies, but certainly not shallow.
>> I still maintain Rick Warren theology is shallow.
And I still maintain that Rick Warren is not the Protestant version of the Pope. I don’t know if Rick Warren is shallow or not — I simply object to Protestantism being defined by a single book by Rick Warren.
