Query: Revisionism and fuzzy thinking undermine this work

As a student of history and theology, I found McBrien's presentation to be shockingly unacademic. Any work of this sort must make better use of early sources, such as Church Fathers and Doctors. Too often McBrien uses condescending remarks to dismiss serious positions. Other times the book reads like one of his newspaper columns, and fares as badly as the "Coneheads" skit being expanded into a major motion picture.
