What reading level is The Real Causes of the Papal Aggression Considered in a Statement Respectful book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
And yet churchmen dare not ask for an in- 16 crease in the episcopate, because they feel and know that the absolute nomination to this most sacred office in the Church is more or less in the hands of those who are hostile alike to her faith, and to her discipline.
The evil of government appointments to the episccptd office has of late years been greatly aggravated : First, because not only the election but the confirmation of bishops is now authoritatively treated as a delusive ceremony, " a sh...am, " and " a shadow^" And secondly, because the tradition of an ha- bitual deference to the opinion and wishes of the church at large '^, which had been more or less maintained throughout the reign of George III. , and even to the end of the Duke of Wellington's administration, has been gradually set aside ; in- deed the fact that a man is obnoxious to church- men in general has now become a motive for se- lecting him to fill the office of a bishop. In one or two deplorable cases it is hardly possible to believe there was any other.
