What reading level is An Inquiry Into the Organization And Government of the Apostolic Church Partic book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
We OF THE APOSTOLIC CHURCH. 133 read of bishops consecrated when mere children ; of men officiating who barely knew their letters; of prelates expelled and others put in their places by violence ; of illiterate and profligate laymen and habitual drunkards admitted to holy orders; and, in short, of the prevalence of every kind of disorder and reckless disregard of the decency which the apostle enjoins. It is inconceivable that any one, even moderately acquainted with history, can feel a certaint...y, or any approach to certainty, that arnid all this confusion and corruption, every requisite form was, in every instance, strictly adhered to by men, many of them openly profane and secular, un- restrained by public opinion, through the gross ignorance of the population among which they lived ; and that no one duly consecrated or ordained was admitted to sacred offices. "Even in later and more civilized and enlightened times, the probability of an irregularity, though very greatly diminished, is yet diminished only, and not absolutely destroyed.
