What reading level is In Quest of Light book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
But the guilt, I submit, attaches not to Christianity itself, but to malig- nant influences under which it has fallen. The vital doctrines of Christianity as preached by its Founder are the fatherhood of God and the brotherhood of man. Our faith in these doc- trines may be failing; our faith in the brother- hood of man would certainly appear to be under- going eclipse. But there is nothing in them which 62 THE CRIMES OF CHRISTENDOM 63 could possibly lend itself to atrocity or persecution.
When ...the Inquisitor sought a warrant in the Gospel for his religious murders, he could find nothing more to his purpose than the words in the parable of the Great Feast, "Compel them [the guests] to come in," or St. Paul's saying, "I would that they were cut off which trouble you," which only the blindest bigotry could construe as a longing for an auto-da-fe.
Islam propagated itself by the sword. Chris- tianity in its native character propagated itself by the Word preached by peaceful missionaries, who, taking their lives in their hands, converted the barbarians and founded the Christian nations.
