What? I understand what Progressive Christianity is, perfectly.

How, exactly, has that been what Christianity been throughout history? Christianity has marginalized people for centuries, and people still use the Bible to justify racist beliefs. What about the Crusades? Inquisitions? The Spanish expulsions of Jews and Muslims after the Reconquista who refused to convert to Christianity? Dum Diversas and Romanus Pontifex? I'd list a lot more, but my memory's not that great today.

Sure, there were times of tolerance, but claiming that Christianity was fluffy bunny for most of history is completely ludicrous.
