What reading level is Proceedings of the Free Convention book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Religion has made of this world, almost literally, a hell, and if there be any liberalism that can make a heaven for any por- tion of humanity, or for all of us, I have no objection on the score of any misanthropic views I have in relation to this matter. I cannot believe it, yet I have no objection to any one's believing it who can. But while we live in this world, let us do something to secure a heaven on earth ; and if we can have a heaven here to go to heaven from, we shall be sure of this,... at least ; we have got two heavens, and so we have a double advantage over the church, which, at the best, can give lis but one. And, friends, if we de- voted half the time, patience and trouble to improve this earth and make it a place of happiness, that we devote to the church, it seems to me that we might have a heaven on this side of Jordan, and so be sure of that, whether we are to enjoy one on the other side or not. But, however that may be, I have no fault to find with Spiritualists, in so far as they are endeavoring to liberalize the community ; and though we cannot expect all men and women to believe alike, yet when the time shall come that the people of this commu- nity can express their views upon religion without suffering legal and social persecution and prosecution, as they do in Boston — without being disfran- woman's part in reform.
