The fact that this card is rated only four out of five stars is crazy. If you know what you're doing, it isn't that difficult to cast; one doesn't require a five color deck to cast Progenitus.
There are common artifact cards, i.e. Kaleidostone, which give you the ability to pay five mana of any color for one of each color. Because up to four of the same card are allowed in a single deck, common artifact cards like Kaleidostone cause casting a beast like Progenitus almost easy.
Progenitus is almost invincible, there are very few ways around it's protection from everything, not to mention its 10 toughness.
It is an immensely powerful card, with so few ways to destroy it... And can be cast for a relatively fair mana cost.

just one Thought Hemorrhage away... i fought sumone that has three copies of this card in his deck using dramatic entrance and maelstrom archangel's effect... good thing i got four Thought Hemorrhage, i lost on our first try but got him conceded the next two battles... i used Thought Hemorrhage on archangel first, then dramatic entrance and progenitus=... he almost cried, what a waste...

The answer to the cost issue: Fist of Suns.

Shouldn't "Protection from everything," include protection from all the colors as well?

What could have made this guy balanced was if it had that "Echo" drawback (where you have to pay its casting cost one more time during your first upkeep after it comes into play). Remember the Elder Dragon Legends, with upkeep costs of multiple colors of mana? A dragon would cost 2RRBBUU and make you pay RBU each upkeep or it's sacked, to make sure you don't just cheat it into play without some serious thinking and preparation first. If Progenitus made you pay WWUUBBRRGG just once, the first upkeep after being cast, that would have put a stop to all those Natural Order type combos that brought him (her, it?) into play on the 2nd or 3rd turn.

WITHOUT the rulings, protection from everything would be so subjective. I mean, if he has protection from everything, he has protection from not being able to attack, so he has haste. Also, he has protection from the stack, and therefore cannot be cast. Also, he has protection from being put into a deck, and cannot be played. Protection from design means we need to undo him.
Must. Stop. Speaking. Protection from theorycraft.
