What reading level is The Philosophy of Religion book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The Frisian chieftain who withdrew his foot from the baptismal stream, saying he would rather be in the place where his forefathers were than in the paradise of the new religion, did homage to a family and national religion.
We need not go back to antiquity to find examples to show that, even after it has once broken through national limitations, rejigion tends to renationalise itself. Primitive Christianity (as before it Buddhism in India and Stoicism in Greece) tried to transcend national lim...its. In modern days, Auguste Comte's 'positive religion' is distinctly a religion of humanity — the faith in and resignation to humanity as 'the great being' which develops in the course of time, and in comparison with which the individual man is only an abstraction.^^* But for many the sympathetic tendency of their religious life will not be limited to humanity, as to a single plant in the wilderness of existence. The religious problem only dawns upon them with the question as to the relation of human life and the human ideal to the whole of existence ; the religion of humanity widens into a cosmological religion.
