What reading level is Evolution in Christian Ethics book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
There is in our age, as in all past ages, a certain consensus or agreement as to the best principles of action, the line which progress is likely to take. But the question imperatively presents itself how far the present agreement is Christian in character. I eliminate, as after the argument of Chapter III. I think I have a right to eliminate, the more short-sighted and materialist cult of utility. On those who are satisfied with such a cult nothing that I can say is likely to have any bearing.... I am speaking of the wiser and more thoughtful ethical investigators, such as some of the teachers in our universities and the writers who have by common consent reached a high level as moralists. What such men have to say must needs be worthy of careful consideration.
Ill Some thoughtful writers who have studied ethics from the rational and evolutional point 74 EVOLUTION IN CHRISTIAN ETHICS of view, while they have been strongly im- pressed by the necessity of changing our notions of ethics to bring them into focus with a reasonable view of man's position and functions in the world, and with an evolutional view of history, do not see how such a view is to be brought into harmony with Christianity.
