What reading level is The Elements of Christian Science a Treatise Upon Moral Philosophy And Practice book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
His theory evidently supposes that God acted at the beginning so far as making a system first, and secondly "setting it a going;" but that He has never acted, nor ever interfered since. To him who holds this Mechanical Theory of the Universe, I say, if he had looked at the nature of man, then had he seen influences above all merely "physical law, " in the possession, by man, of an actual Spiritual Nature, one of the very qualities of which must be actions origin- ating in no antecedent physical... cause. He had seen also influ- ences, which arise not in a single " cause-and-effect, " physical law binding all things in a chain to the original movement of the system at the beginning of the world, but in three schools for teaching, each existing in the one many-formed and many-purposed institution of Society, and each working out the Will of a present, ruling God.
Think of the four links in the chain of being ; of God, first ; and secondly, of Society, the organization instituted to teach His Will ; and thirdly, of the Spiritual and Moral faculties of man, Avhich by nature belong to him ; fourthly, of Man as the in- dividual to whom they belong ; and hardly shall you fall into these errors.
