What reading level is The Crying Need of a Renewed Christianity book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The second explanation of the impotency of the Christian churches to prevent war, or promote peace, is to be found in the unethical quality of some of the doctrines of the Christian churches, as crystallized in their dogmas and creeds. The official creeds of the great churches of Christianity, and many parts of the Scriptures contain conceptions of God's nature and of His action toward the human race which are intoler- able to the ethical mind of the nineteenth and twen- tieth centuries. The cr...eeds of the evangelical churches are, as a rule, built on the " fall of man " as described in the story of the Garden of Eden, the absolute cor- rectness or trustworthiness of the story itself being assumed on the ground that its author was inspired by God himself. The conduct attributed to God in that story would be wholly unworthy of any man whose standards of conduct accorded with the average sentiments about right and wrong of civilized people to-day. God in that story is unjust, mean, and cruel; yet the story, taken as a narrative of facts, has been made the foundation of the official creeds of all the great Christian churches.
