What reading level is The Absolution Formula of the Templars book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:


without these words there was no absolution.' Various formulas, however, continued to be used and towards the close of the century Duns Scotus argues that while Ego te absoh'o is well fitted for its purpose, the priest should not be restricted in his form of expression, which is indifferent so long as the purport is conveyed.' It was not till 1439, ^* the council of Florence, in the Decree of Union with the Armenians, that the Church formally adopted this formula,' and the council of Trent, in
...1551, pronounced it to be the sole essential part of the sacrament and that all else is unnecessary.* Evidently the error of the Templars consisted in not moving with the world, in not adapting themselves properly to the development of the sacramental theory in the Church, and in this they were pardonable, seeing that they were ostensibly warriors and not theologians or canon lawyers. For a long while, indeed, after the foundation of the Order the delimitation of sacerdotal functions was still vague and undefined.
