What reading level is The Existence of God book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Forthere is no comparison to be made between a being that exists byhimself and a being who has nothing of his own--nothing but what isprecarious and borrowed--and is in himself, as it were, only upontrust.
This consideration brings me to acknowledge the imperfection of whatI call my soul. If she existed by herself, it would borrow nothingfrom another; she would not want either to be instructed in herignorances, or to be rectified in her errors. Nothing could reclaimher from her vices, or inspir...e her with virtue; for nothing would beable to render her will better than it should have been at first. This soul would ever possess whatever she should be capable toenjoy, nor could she ever receive any addition from without. On theother hand, it is no less certain that she could not lose anything, for what is or exists by itself is always necessarily whatever itis. Therefore my soul could not fall into ignorance, error, orvice, or suffer any diminution of good-will; nor could she, on theother hand, instruct or correct herself, or become better than sheis.
