@PhyrexianLobbiest: You can't target Progenitus with Lava Burst. Lava Burst deals X damage to TARGET creature. Progenitus isn't a legal target, seeing as he has protection from red. I totally agree that he should quite literally have protection from EVERYTHING. Flavor text? The Soul of the World?? Come on...

The proud owner of a foil Progenitus! Second Place at a tourney earned me that (along with another pile of goodies!) Not as good as a Darksteel Collosus, but much more flavorful.

Anti-Progenitus cards that aren't board cleaners:
Sudden Spoiling, Ixidron, Humility.
Be prepared to deal with this monster!

when i first saw this card, i thought to myself, WHAT? protection from everything is this a joke, does this card belong to unglued series? but i got over it pretty quickly, it's now in one of the very few 5 color decks i ever got to work properly. when i know someone else is using this card i make sure i hold on to a counterspell, or extinction

The mana cost was stifling but there's a really good way to play this card.
Keep this in a green "stompy" deck with a few Elvish Pipers, four Channel the Suns, and maybe a mycosynth lattice (if you REALLY need to pay for it the old fashioned way with only green mana). Back the mana generation with a few Civic Wayfinders or other mana-elves, and you should be able to play him pretty quickly, assuming that you draw him in time.
As far as the problem of being killed with cards like Wrath of God or Damnation, consider using him in a deck with both mycosynth lattice and darksteel forge. Darksteel Forge will protect Progenitus from destroy effects, now, since Darksteel forge and Mycosynth Lattice are global effects, anyway.
Honestly, I played him in a five-color artifact deck that had these as their background:
Progenitus (4)
Darksteel Forge
Mycosynth Lattice
Channel the Suns
Demonic Tutor
Helm of Awakening (4)
+ other stuff.
I played three helms of awakening, making Ch... (see all)
