What reading level is The League of Nations the Opportunity of the Church book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
And what constitutes the justice or injustice of an attack always remains an am- biguous question on which national feeling is hotly enlisted. But no doubt the main cause of failure was the natural love of war. In the books of Samuel "the THE OPPORTUNITY OF THE CHURCH ITi time that kings go out to battle" is a mere synonym for the spring, when the restraint of winter upon mili- tary expeditions is over. War was the natural occu- pation of kings. And it remained so in the mediaeval period. Relig...ion, embodied in the Catholic Church and centring in the Papacy, had not influence enough, even in the zenith of its power, to restrain the mutually aggressive ambitions of mediaeval monarchs.
Later the Holy Roman . Empire became a shadow. The political power of the Papacy declined. The mod- em nations formed themselves with all their separate tendencies and interests. Then when the Reformation came, though it was at the start a religious rebellion against enormous abuses in the Catholic Church, yet it fell in with the disruptive tendencies of developed nationalism.
