What reading level is The Faith of a Modern Protestant book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Him we may rightly call the sage of the Christian age — the philosopher of Protestantism.
Those spiritual movements which have so deeply affected and influenced the history of the Christian peoples, although they have re- mained to a certain extent apart from the main trend of Christian belief in God, cannot but acknowledge the influence of its spirit and stand in most active relation to it. It is true that the Christian religion, like the Indian religion, developed the phenomenon of monas- tic...ism, and this monasticism for a time concen- trated in itself the best and most distinctively progressive forces. But what a difference be- tween Western monasticism and that of the Hindu religious world! In the latter we have a weary retirement of the human being into himself, and a dreaming away of life in medita- tion and emptiness; in the latter we have active energy which gained new and valuable things, civilized the young barbarian nations, cultivated territories, cut down forests, transferred the treasures of an old world to a new, and in the GOD AND THE SOUL 45 solitude of retirement delighted in the beauty of this natural world.
