Maybe the Church was right to index this on theological grounds. I wouldn't know. But there's nothing here approaching the simplicity of, say, Thomas Aquinas. I bailed when I read "articulation of the divine incarnational radiance". Or, As Rob Bell put it, "who God made you to be". Dude. If you want to spark a paradigm shift among religious traditions, you might want to look up Jesus. He didn't hand down an updated Deuteronomy. He told stories.
