What reading level is The Philosophy of the Christian Religion book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Yet if anything in history be certain, it is that Hinduism, with all it stands for, has descended without any break of continuity, though with cumulative accretions and ever in- creasing variations from the faith held and the order observed WITH THE IMPERSONAL RELIGIONS 261 by the Vedic men. On the other hand, Hebraism and Chris- tianity are much more aHke than the two Indian systems and have an historical connexion even more intimate and organic. In their ideas of God, His character and His la...w, of man and his duty, of the prophet and his word, of life and its issues, in almost all those things in which the modern differs from the ancient Hindu, they fundamentally agree ; yet they constitute not one religion but two, each incapable of fusion with the other, dissimilar in character and independent in being. The Jewish had no room for the Christian religion, the Christian has no room for the Jewish ; and though they use the same name for God, speak of Him in identical terms, praise Him in the same Psalms, with equal reverence regard the same book as His inspired word, and alike enforce the need of clean hands and pure hearts in the men who would worship Him, yet one fact or belief so determines their respec- tive qualities and relations that neither can be merged in the other.
