What reading level is Among the Burmans; a Record of Fifteen Years of Work And Its Fruitage book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
If there is no God there can be no sin against God. Sins are against self only, in that they involve penalty. But penalty may be counter-balanced by meritorious works. There- fore all responsibihty to God or man is repudi- ated. Each man must be his own saviour. His meritorious works are solely for his own advan- tage.
Self-centred, and self-sufficient, — the Christian doctrines of an Eternal God, atonement, pardon, regeneration and heaven are rejected as idle tales concerning things which they... consider neither necessary nor desirable. The Apostles, or missionaries (sent-forth-ones) of the early church found that the Gentiles received the gos- pel much more readily than the Jews. The lat- ter were steeped in bigotry, and imagined them- 164 Among the Burmans selves a superior and specially favoured people.
They were priest-ridden, and led astray by the " traditions of the elders." Any suggestion of change was deeply resented, especially by the religious teachers. History repeats itself in Burma.
